Peeks will bring its full suite of services to bear for the event, including celebrities, social influencers, advertising sales, payment services, and of course, professional grade multi-camera livestreaming.

"We look forward to working with Peeks to cultivate a new global online audience and to generate new revenues for the many artists, performers, charities, and community groups that participate in the Carnival," said Denise Herrera-Jackson, CEO of the Festival Management Committee.

"We are excited to be the Named sponsor of the largest cultural event in Canada and one of the largest cultural events in North America. As Peeks is an international service with users in well over 100 countries, it is befitting for us to be the name attached to an inclusive event in the multicultural city of Toronto. It is exciting to have our name known by tens of millions of people worldwide and have the opportunity to demonstrate how Peeks can monetize any major event in a manner that improves the attendance, experience, and economics of any major cultural event such as the Carnival. Fans will be able to view all aspects of the event from preparation to parade day with a unique total 360 immersive event experience," said Mark Itwaru, Chairman and CEO of Peeks Social Ltd.
