About the event
The world’s longest street festival is back! Wellington Street West comes alive in Hintonburg and Wellington Village with delicious food tastings (donation-based, supporting the Parkdale Food Centre), local shopping, live music, circus acts, roller disco, kids’ activities, art, and more—all family-friendly and free to enjoy.
Support local businesses, explore new flavours, and celebrate the vibrant spirit of our community while giving back.
In 2026, the celebration grows beyond the daytime festival with the launch of two exciting new experiences designed to bring even more people together.
Parkdale Park creates a new community hub featuring the CKCU Live Music Stage, live radio broadcasts, interactive activities, community programming, and welcoming gathering spaces where families and visitors can relax, connect, and enjoy the festival.
After Taste transforms Wellington West into a neighbourhood-wide stage as the Thursty Pedaler Entertainment Tour brings buskers, musicians, and entertainers to participating patios throughout the evening.
