About this Event
On Saturday, May 23, The Desi Troop takes over Malaparte — the rooftop event space atop TIFF Bell Lightbox, modeled after Villa Malaparte in Capri, with floor-to-ceiling windows, an open-air terrace, and a CN Tower skyline that does half the work for you. It's hosted some of Toronto's most exclusive private events. It has never hosted a Bollywood night.
We're opening it for one evening only.
The vibe Sundowner on the rooftop. Doors at 7 PM. The first hour is a slow-burn — golden hour, curated cocktails, the city stretching out behind you. By 9 PM the terrace is full and the booth is locked in. DJ Aarmash, EXO, and Sunpreet weave Bollywood into Afro, Latin, and house, and the room finds its rhythm somewhere between Andheri and Ibiza.

- Curated bar program & full bottle service
- Private VIP booths (limited — first-come on bookings)
