About & FAQs
What is "Extraterrestrial Abductions Day"? The short answer… March 20 is the "official" day of the Festival of Extraterrestrial Abductions. Despite our extensive research, we don't know who created the day or for what specific purpose. But we assume it's the special day chosen by our alien overlords themselves. Every year on March 20 they swoop down and select lucky humans from around the globe for a personal tour of their spaceships, along with the unique opportunity to take part in various exciting testing procedures.
What is the "Alien Abduction Festival" all about?
It’s a good excuse to share some light hearted, geeky n' creative fun. We’ve joined with some great spots in our 'hood to share a wide variety of alieny fun for everyone… human and ETs alike. There’s extraterrestrial arts and crafts with alien, UFO and tin foil hat making, bizarre eats, funky music, and a grab bag o' fun like random alien abductions, UFO rides, and crop circles, and other spacey strangeness.
Where's the Festival being held?
The extraterrestrial epicenter is Queen Street West and Bathurst Street, the creative hotspot in Toronto, ON, Canada. All locations are on Queen Street within 1-2 blocks west of Bathurst.

What if I don't think alien abductions should be treated in a light-hearted way?
We appreciate that for some members of the extraterrestrial community, abductions are considered a serious matter. Some feel it should not be approached in an entertaining way. Please understand that we are not attempting to poke fun at these concerns or at abduction events.
