Luminato Festival Toronto

Wishing a Fond Farewell to Naomi Campbell!

We’re wishing a bittersweet farewell to Luminato’s Artistic Director, Naomi Campbell!

After 12 years at Luminato, 2023 marked Naomi Campbell’s final festival. Driven by her kindness and vision, Naomi brought Luminato to the world-stage through incredible dedication and collaborations. Naomi championed local and international artists big and small, and the culmination of her achievements greatly contributed to Toronto’s rich cultural fabric.

We are forever thankful to her, and we are so excited to see Naomi’s next chapter after Luminato. 

The Land

The land we gather on is the traditional territory of the Mississaugas of the Credit, the Chippewa, the Anishinaabeg, the Haudenosaunee Confederacy, the Wendat Confederacy, and many other Indigenous peoples, both known and unknown. This territory is subject to Treaty 13 and the Dish With One Spoon Wampum Belt Covenant and is home to many First Nations, Inuit and Métis peoples from across Turtle Island.

Luminato acknowledges our responsibilities to these territorial agreements and to peaceably share and care for the resources of this land while aspiring to embody the treaties through our actions, our relationship-building, and our programs. Luminato is grateful to have the opportunity to work with many diverse Indigenous nations on this territory and with other guests to this land.
