Have you heard of Toronto artist Drake’s newest restaurant in town? Located right in the heart of the city, Pick 6ix is the newest hot spot in town.

Cocktails
This venue is where our very own artist hosts his private parties with celebrities; NBA superstars, OVO crew etc. How amazing is the opportunity to host your event in the same venue Drake likes to host his own. At Pick 6ix you’re sure to often see the crowd order bottles of wine but when dinner time comes, you get to see all the fabulous cocktails. The Black Widow is the top-selling cocktail, made with Drake’s Virginia Black whiskey.

Mains
Pick 6ix is the place to enjoy top quality drinks and food while being in an atmosphere that has a mix of an upscale lounge or dinner and a sports bar. Without forgetting that they offer healthy high-end dishes and lots of sashimi and sushi.

The restaurant features a 2,100-square-foot open concept with a glass enclose that slides down by the simple touch of a button. Once the glass ceiling is opened it creates a great open patio environment. (See picture below.)

Lending a Helping Hand With AMICA

This year CityEvents was honoured to be a part of the planning of the AMICA Helping Hands event which took place on November 2nd, 2017 at the Omni King Edward Hotel. Attendees of the event were happily seated in the beautiful crystal ballroom and looked forward to fundraising for such a beautiful cause.

 

 

The night was dedicated to raising awareness of seniors living in poverty in Canada and also provided insight and knowledge on not only the physical but mental difficulties Canadians face as they grow older, some without families to help and support them.

Guests were delighted with delicious food and great entertainment including a keynote speech delivered by Susan Pinker and a hilarious comedy skit by the talented, Jessica Holmes. There was also a blue carpet to showcase all guests’ dashing good looks.

Paintings created by AMICA’s very own residents were scattered throughout the entire venue as a part of an extra effort to show support and showcase the talent of AMICA residents.. Guests were able to participate in silent auctions throughout the night to purchase these paintings as well.

This year as always, AMICA Helping Hands was a success and thanks to the generous and kind Canadians who took part in the night’s festivities, AMICA was once again able to raise funds to help support seniors across Canada.

From Backstage to the Catwalk : CityEvents Produces ATSC Fashion Show

 

On August 22nd 2017, CityEvents took part in the Apparel Textile Sourcing Canada Trade Show at the International Centre. CityEvents presented the crowd a fun and trendy fashion show to the mix of some already great seminars that take place at the yearly trade show.

The show featured some amazing designers from students out of George Brown, Seneca College, OCAD, Fanshaw and Humber College to some trendy up and coming Canadian designers. Amongst this mix were student designers such as Anastasiya Lyevina who opened the show and set the mood for the day, along with Kennie Lampkin and Sepideh Ghahremani whose designs took the stage by storm.

Some of the featured Canadian designers consisted of Gift Gowns a stylish alternative to those boring hospital gowns that everyone is so used to, Katiya Lifestyle Brand whose designs were comfortable and perfect to wear during your downtime.  

KM Brand who was also featured in the trends lounge that displayed how you can take one outfit and turn it into another. KM designs featured cool zip off clothing pieces that turned short sleeves into long sleeves and pants into shorts in a matter of seconds. Last but not least Julia Grieve’s designs closed the show with her brand PreLoved and showed off some great sustainable pieces that could be added to any fashion lovers wardrobe for this up and coming fall and winter seasons.

The show also featured some of the amazing designs from the exhibitors that were already on the trade show floor from Bangledesh, China and India.  This show provided the public the option to stop by the booths and check out designs that were being featured in the show.

With a professional stage, awesome music and great lighting no wonder people were stopping by to take pictures as the models strutted everything from outerwear to formal wear and designs for every season.

CityEvents was pleased to take part in the production for this show by recruiting designers from all over. The experience of marketing and producing the show was a joy to the team. Thank you to all the schools, models, designers and supporters who came out to help and check out the show.
