Nuit Blanche 2025 – Upcoming Lakeshore Campus Closures

Nuit Blanche returns to Lakeshore Campus October 4 & 5 

As part of the upcoming Nuit Blanche event taking place at the Lakeshore Campus on October 4 & 5, there will be a handful of space closures and impacts on the east side of the campus. Most impacts will take place outdoors and on the event weekend itself. Visible work will begin to occur Wednesday, October 1 as outdoor projects are installed around the cottages, but impacts will be kept to a minimum and travel around the campus will not be affected. 

During the event weekend, all Cottages and L Building will be closed for the event and regular activities will be suspended from 12pm Saturday, October 4 until 12 p.m. on Sunday, October 5 at the latest. Our teams will work diligently to open spaces on Sunday once post-event production wraps up.  

Closure notices will be placed at all cottage entrances as well as around the L Building to keep the community updated.
