Does dancing with dinosaurs to our favourite mashups ever get old? Obviously not! Our favourite Friday night event series returns this fall with a BIG BANG!

We couldn’t think of a more romantic, culturally stimulating and all-around-fun way to kick off the weekend. If you’ve experienced the magic that is ROM FNL before, you KNOW we’re right! Grab your pals, boyfriend, sexy neighbour, or just take yourself out for a wild night—there’s so much to see and do, why not choose your own adventure?

If you haven’t been, WHAT ARE YOU WAITING FOR? FNL is quite literally one of the best curated, and most enjoyable event series in the city, and something we very much look forward to every year. And it keeps getting better! With every incarnation there are more activities, more eats, more ERRRYTHING.

There are loads of fun themes in store, from Fashion Global (Oct 24), Boo! (Oct 31), to Dinos, Dodos & Disco (Nov 7) and Celestial Blast (Nov 28). Kicking off the season on Oct 10 is Thanks Canada. If you have a Mountie costume stashed in your closet, get that baby to a dry cleaner’s ASAP.

What else can you expect on opening night? We don’t even know where to start! Get your groove on to the sweet sounds of The Icicles on the Currelly Mainstage or retreat to the Bronfman Hall Lounge for a lil instrumental action from Ron Hawkins & The Do Good Assassins.

Enjoy laughs courtesy of Second City, who have created a special Giving it up for Canada show especially for FNL! Take a #CanSelfie (let’s get this trending, shall we?) at the All Canadian Photo-op in the Level 3 Performance Hall. Meet Ontario wine makers at the RBC Glass Room and show your smarts by taking part in an All-Canadian Trivia Contest in the Centre Block starting at 8pm! Believe it or not, these are only about a quarter of the activities going down during this night. Oh, Canada (and FNL), we looooove you!
