Experience TIFF Glamour at The St. Regis Toronto: King’s Cake, Caviar, and a $2,000 Cocktail

If you’re in Toronto for TIFF, the hardest part isn’t picking a film. It’s figuring out where to go before or after screenings.
The St. Regis Toronto has a lineup of festival-themed food, drink, and wellness offerings that give you a reason to celebrate.
If you want a relaxed midday plan, try the TIFF Afternoon Tea in Astor Lounge. It runs until October 11 and costs $98 per guest. You’ll get savoury bites like king crab and egg with caviar, followed by cinema-themed sweets like a popcorn box and signature King’s Cake.
If you only have time for a quick stop, head up to LOUIX LOUIS on the 31st floor for a slice of the red-carpet King’s Cake. It costs $55 and stacks 13 layers of red velvet with Guayaquil chocolate ganache and hazelnut chocolate buttercream.
For an evening catch-up, Astor Lounge hosts a Champagne sabrage and caviar service daily at 6:00 p.m. A St. Regis Butler sabres a bottle of Champagne, and you get two glasses paired with 30 grams of premium Ossetra caviar and blinis for $300. If you want something more private, you can book a personalized sabrage session for the same price. The hotel limits that to one booking per day.
Guests staying overnight can also book in-room spa treatments starting at $260, including lymphatic drainage and performance massages. And if someone at your table wants the most talked-about luxury pour of the festival, LOUIX LOUIS serves The Velvet Curtain for $2,000, a cocktail blending The Macallan M Black, vintage Armagnac, and mahogany smoke.
