  The location is the historic Round Room of The Carlu on the top floor of College Park.  “Originally opened in 1930 as “Eaton’s Seventh Floor,” The Carlu was spearheaded by businessman Timothy Eaton. Lady Eaton, who aspired to bring high society and world-class culture to Toronto, was actively involved in the planning and design of Eaton’s College Street and the Seventh Floor. To realize her desire for style and elegance, she commissioned famed French architect, Jacques Carlu. Carlu was renowned for his masterpieces in the Art Moderne style, known as streamlined monumentalism for its clean lines and grand scale. In fact, it is said that the sheer beauty and unique shape of The Round Room may have inspired the design of The Rockefeller Center’s iconic Rainbow Room.” The Carlu was renovated and re-opened as one of Toronto’s premier event spaces in 2003 and is recognized as one of Toronto’s best examples of Art Moderne architecture and has been designated as a National Historic Site of Canada. The Carlu is managed by Oliver & Bonacini.

  Formal or business attire requested.
