It also serves as a respite for talent with a lounge open from September 9-12. Additionally, the puppies are back! For the fourth year, EW and PEOPLE have partnered with a local dog rescue organization for a popular activation promoting pet adoption. This year's partnership is with Project Paws. To round out the weekend, EW will host its coveted VIP Awardist party, sponsored by 1 Hotel Toronto and Paramount+ Canada honoring our TIFF Must List and spotlighting Sanaa Lathan's directorial debut and Paramount+'s upcoming original film, On the Come Up. Other Must List honorees and guests include Jessica Chastain & Eddie Redmayne (The Good Nurse), Tyler Perry (A Jazz Man's Blues), Billy Eichner & Luke MacFarlane (Bros) and Brian Tyree Henry (Causeway).

In addition, EW is welcoming award-winning host, interviewer, and entertainment expert Dave Karger as the brand's new Awards Correspondent.
