With TIFF ( The Toronto International Film Festival) upon us it just wouldn't be the festival without the celebrity gifting suite. No one does it better than Rock-It Promotions - and this year they have really outdone themselves.

I took a tour of their "Suite on the Sixth" to find out what goodies await this year's celebs!

Canada’s original and most coveted gifting lounge, Suite on the Sixth (formerly Tastemakers),
is back from September 5 – 8 to showcase the hottest and most coveted products and services on the market. To celebrate its 14th anniversary, the popular lounge will take place in the home of rock-it promotions, one of Canada’s leading boutique lifestyle PR agencies.

Debra Goldblatt-Sadowski, president and founder of rock-it promotions, founded the lounge in 2005 with each year seeing the property grow and evolve into the highly-sought after and anticipated event it is. This year’s lounge welcomes a diverse group of notable and global brands who will showcase their products and services to some of the nation’s most recognizable media, talent and social influencers.
