NKPR

The IT Lounge has been an integral part of Toronto’s film festival culture since 2006. It serves as a sanctuary for media, talent and VIPs looking to recharge and relax during the hustle of the film festival.

In lieu of the traditional gifting suite format, NKPR and The Scott Brothers (Property Brothers, Brother vs. Brother) have collaborated to create a landmark destination called the NKPR IT House x Producers Ball, a 5-day experiential activation featuring live art with Peter Tunney, portrait studio with Caitlin Cronenberg and W Magazine and of course, the annual Producers Ball Gala hosted by the Scott Brothers.

Partners for the 2016 IT House include David’s Tea, beGlammed, SculpSure, Fandago, Barilla, Lug, Cineflix, Corus and Spin.
