2025 CALENDAR

From June 12 through August 24, 2025, Toronto Outdoor Picture Show is proud to present our 15th anniversary festival over 20 evenings of open-air cinema programming at three parks across Toronto: Fort York, Christie Pits, and Corktown Common.

When We Were Young celebrates TOPS’ milestone birthday by throwing back to the festival’s very first curated programme theme – coming of age – to reflect on where we’ve been, where we’re going, and why we fell in love with the movies in the first place. On this page, you may browse all 2025 screenings at a glance, or choose to explore each neighbourhood series by clicking on the locations below.
