With the Contessa Awards gala quickly approaching, get ready for an unforgettable night on Sunday, November 10, 2024, at the Westin Harbour Castle in Toronto.
To kick off the night, our pre-event cocktail party will be held at 5 p.m. in the Frontenac ballroom with our Contessa Awards red carpet, hosted by special guest host, Sal Leonetti. Guests can also enjoy three exciting activations from Matrix, Oligo Professionnel and Schwarzkopf Professional. Strike a pose at the Matrix photo booth, enjoy a complimentary Contessa cocktail from Oligo Professionnel (for the first 250 guests), and try your luck at the Schwarzkopf Professional claw machine filled with fantastic prizes.
For our glamorous gala dinner and awards ceremony, we’re happy to have Toronto-based, Contessa-winning hairstylist Palma N’Sheluvzit returning as our emcee.
Multi-Contessa-winner Tony Ricci will be kicking off the festivities with a dramatic show opener. Ricci is also the recipient of this year’s Contessa Hall of Fame award
For this year’s stage presentations, we’re so excited to welcome the HOB Academy team all the way from London, U.K., who will be making their Contessa debut, on behalf of Wella Company, with their latest show that spotlights their award-winning editorial haircutting, styling and finishing prowess.
For our show-stopping grand finale, Schwarzkopf Professional’s Canadian team, led by multi-Contessa-winner Michelle Oliver and education manager Erinn De Luca, will be taking the stage to showcase bold colour, cuts and styles.
Sassoon Academy Toronto will also lead a short segment in celebration of the company’s 70th anniversary. In case you haven’t heard, Sassoon Academy Toronto is also this year’s Education Sponsor and will be gifting many Contessa winners with an education voucher valued at $1,490!
