If you’ve been following along with me amid all things TIFF 2025 & #TIFF50 via social media, you’ll understand that celebrities and star studded events are some of my favourite parts of the excitement in between screenings. Over the years since I first started attending not just as a lover of film, but as media, I’ve had the pleasure of enjoying momentous experiences with the team at Moët & Chandon. With their help I have come to understand that TIFF is also so much more than just parties. That is why I thought I would help you see which celebrities have been joining in something really special amid the hustle and bustle.
The “Transform Together” campaign was launched in honour of TIFF’s 50th anniversary, and invests in the future of film. A show-stopping 12L Balthazar (in place of its signature 9L bottle) will be autographed by leading stars at TheWrap Portrait Studio throughout the festival and later auctioned to support creative excellence, talent development, and community connections.
“Funds raised will expand TIFF’s capacity to showcase groundbreaking stories, nurture the next generation of filmmakers, and deepen audience engagement, while driving industry growth. The campaign ensures TIFF continues to be a global cultural force, celebrating Canada’s artistic legacy and championing diverse voices in film.”
So far Ryan Reynolds, Colin Hanks, Barbie Ferreira, Stellan Skarsgård, Shailene Woodley, Daniel Craig, Glenn Close, Kerry Washington, Mila Kunis, Sydney Sweeny, Ben Foster, Jude Law, and more have all united in celebrating creativity, culture, and community.
