THE WORLD’S LONGEST STREET FESTIVAL IS RIGHT HERE IN OTTAWA

Taste of Wellington is one of Ottawa’s largest and longest-running street festivals, bringing Wellington West to life for a day of food, shopping, art, music, and community celebration.

 

Each September, more than 100 local businesses, restaurants, retailers, artists, and community organizations come together to create a unique neighbourhood experience that attracts tens of thousands of visitors from across Ottawa-Gatineau. Visitors can enjoy one-day-only tasting menus, live entertainment, public art, family-friendly activities, special promotions, and the world’s longest sidewalk sale.

 

For more than 20 years, Taste of Wellington has celebrated the independent businesses, creative energy, and strong sense of community that make Wellington West one of Ottawa’s most loved neighbourhoods. From local restaurants and shops to musicians, artists, and performers, the event brings together the people and places that define the district.

 

In 2026, the celebration continues into the evening with the launch of After Taste, a new experience featuring live music, interactive art, performances, patios, shopping, and community gathering spaces throughout Wellington West.
