Toronto International Film Festivalβs 50th anniversary wasnβt just about the films β it was about the unforgettable nights that followed.
Roxstar Entertainment (soon to be Twenty35 Agency) once again set the gold standard for premiere parties, transforming the cityβs hottest venues into dazzling celebrations where cinema met culture, and brand partners brought their signature style.
The Neglected & Easyβs Waltz at Discreta & Jacobs & Co.
The festival kicked off in high style with The Neglected celebration at Discreta, hosted in partnership with Campari, Lavazza, and Rodeo FX. Guests, including Josh Duhamel, Dylan Sprouse, and director David Lipper, toasted the film with signature Campari cocktails, while Lavazza kept the energy high with their signature Italian coffee service.
The following evening, Easyβs Waltz took over Jacobs & Co. Steakhouse with Campari, Lavazza, Rodeo FX, and Bottega Gold prosecco on deck. Vince Vaughn and Simon Rex led the star power, with guests mingling late into the night over glasses of Bottega Gold and sleek Campari spritzes.

Scarlett Johansson & Ethan Hawke Headline Jacobs & Co. Nights
Jacobs & Co. continued to shine as Eleanor the Great brought Scarlett Johansson, Erin Kellyman, June Squibb, and Chiwetel Ejiofor into the fold. The intimate dinner setting gave the stars a chance to relax post-premiere, while sponsors Campari, Lavazza, Rodeo FX, and Bottega Gold curated the perfect mix of indulgence and energy.
Moments later in the week, Blue Moon lit up the same venue with Ethan Hawke and Bobby Cannavale. Both nights at Jacobs & Co. captured TIFFβs balance of refined dining and cinematic electricity.

Nuremberg at Milos
Estiatorio Milos hosted one of TIFFβs most glamorous parties as Roxstar Entertainment rolled out the red carpet for Nuremberg. Powered by Tequila Don Julio, Rodeo FX, Laroche Wines, and Bottega Gold prosecco, the evening blended Greek fine dining with Hollywood allure.
Rami Malek, John Slattery, Richard E. Grant, and rising star Leo Woodall held court, mingling with guests over Don Julio specialty cocktails and Laroche pours. The vibe was downtown chic with a celebratory edge, cementing Nuremberg as one of the festivalβs marquee events.

Glenrothan at Convivium
Closing the Roxstar slate, Glenrothanβs cast and crew gathered at Convivium, with Brian Cox and Alexandra Shipp among the eveningβs highlights. Sponsored by Johnnie Walker Black, MoΓ«t Chandon, and Laroche Wines, the affair exuded Scottish refinement with a modern twist. From glasses of bubbly MoΓ«t to whisky tastings that paid homage to the filmβs themes, it was a fitting finale to Roxstarβs TIFF 2025 run.
