Window Wonderland 2024

With the holiday season upon us, Toronto’s award-winning winter art exhibition, Window Wonderland, returns to the Junction for its fifth consecutive year. From November 29 to January 31, the magical urban art walk, presented by Isaan Der Thai Kitchen, will transform the Junction into a FREE outdoor art gallery featuring 20 spectacular augmented reality (AR) window installations and ten murals, all designed by local and international artists.

The first of its kind for the City of Toronto, Window Wonderland is presented in collaboration with the internationally renowned AR app Artivive. This revolutionary app adds a layer of augmented reality to traditional art, creating new experiences and leaving audiences in awe. Visitors at Window Wonderland can simply download the Artivive app, point their smartphones at the artwork on the windows and wall murals, and voila –  watch the artist’s creation come to life!

Window Wonderland has earned distinguished accolades, showcasing its success as an immersive urban art experience. In 2021, the event received the Ontario BIA Association’s Initiative Award, recognizing its unique contribution to community engagement and creativity. In 2022, Window Wonderland was honoured with the International Downtown Association’s Award of Excellence and TABIA’s Events Award, underscoring its role as a premier event in Toronto’s cultural landscape. Most recently, the event was awarded OBIAA’s 2023 Award of Excellence in Streetscaping & Public Realm Improvements and TABIA’s 2023 Mural Award, celebrating the event’s contributions to public art and community spaces.
