Luminato Festival Tops Attendance In Its First Year

In its first outing, “Toronto’s newborn Luminato Festival of Arts and Creativity, which ended on Sunday, became the biggest multi-site, multidisciplinary festival in North America, well beyond South Carolina’s Spoleto, or the Lincoln Center Festival in New York City. Over Luminato’s 10-day run, attendance topped 1.03 million people, more than double the festival organizers’ modest first-year projections.”
