TIFF is all about the parties for some. This year, last call at many Toronto bars has once again been pushed back to 4 a.m. making it easier to hit up multiple venues in one evening. And along with the usual early morning debauchery, there are plenty of black tie galas and other exclusive events for you to try to sneak your way into.

Here's our TIFF party guide for 2016.

HOT SPOTS

Mongrel House (Sept. 8-14, Campbell House)
For the second year in a row, Canadian distributor Mongrel Media is transforming the Campbell House into one of the city's coolest party venues (for history nerds, that is). This year's iteration will include a night market and music from local bands, like Dear Rouge.

Bungalow 8 pop-up (Sept. 8-10, Thompson Hotel Rooftop)
New York nightclub Bungalow 8 will take over the Thompson's rooftop for the first three nights of the festival. In the past, this pop-up has attracted lots of celebs because who doesn't appreciate a good view of the skyline?

Villa Azur (Sept. 8-11, The Spoke Club)
This Miami-based restaurant making its way to Toronto with a three-day residency at the Spoke Club. Events include a dinner party and a rooftop brunch.

NKPR IT House x Producers Ball (Sept. 8-12, 128 Peter St.)
PR firm NKPR and the Producers Ball are behind this 7,000 square foot, two-storey lounge that'll host celebrities and other guests for the first five days of the festival.

Hyde Beach Miami (Sept. 8-11, Wildflower)
Along with Hollywood, Miami's getting a lot of attention at the festival. The Hyde Beach Miami club will bring the southern Florida vibes to Toronto during TIFF's opening weekend.

Soho House (Sept. 18-18)
This members-only club is a favourite amongst Toronto's (and Hollywood's) elite - probably because you're not supposed to take photos inside. Expect it to be hopping with after-parties throughout TIFF.

The Ritz Carlton might be filled with celebrity guests, but that shouldn't stop you from heading on to the patio for a drink (or two or three).

SEPTEMBER 9

Wake Up, Shake Up (Addisons Residence)
