Introduction
Toronto is preparing for an extraordinary evening of music, cinema, and celebration. On September 6, the Toronto International Film Festival (TIFF) will unveil EPiC by Baz Luhrmann: Elvis Presley, a premiere concert experience that fuses film artistry with live performance in a way never seen before.
A Visionary Director and the King of Rock ’n’ Roll
Renowned filmmaker Baz Luhrmann, celebrated for bold, visually striking works such as Moulin Rouge! and The Great Gatsby, brings his unique storytelling to Elvis Presley’s enduring legacy. With his unmistakable style, Luhrmann presents Elvis not merely as a legendary performer, but as a cultural phenomenon whose influence continues to reverberate through music, fashion, and popular culture.
A Premiere Like No Other
This TIFF debut goes beyond a traditional film screening. Instead, audiences will be transported into an immersive concert event, featuring Elvis’s most iconic songs alongside cinematic reinterpretations. The combination of big-screen storytelling and the raw energy of live music promises to deliver a multi-sensory journey that captures the essence of an era and its most iconic star. For festivalgoers, it is set to be one of the standout attractions.
Why This Event Stands Apart
-
Film Meets Live Sound – Relive Elvis’s timeless hits in an electrifying format that unites stage and screen.
-
Exclusive World Premiere – Witness Baz Luhrmann’s latest creative achievement before anyone else.
-
Immersive Celebration – Be part of a rare evening where cinema, performance, and spectacle converge.
Secure Your Place
With limited seating available, this one-night-only event is expected to sell out quickly. For those eager to witness a groundbreaking cultural tribute at TIFF, reserving tickets early will be essential. This is not simply another festival premiere—it is an opportunity to experience history being made on stage and screen.
