Mark your calendars for one of Etobicoke's most anticipated community traditions: Taste of the Kingsway returns from September 11 to 13, 2026. Presented by Mantella Corporation, this massive annual street festival transforms a major stretch of Bloor Street West—from Prince Edward Drive to Montgomery Street—into a bustling pedestrian celebration of local businesses, culinary arts, and neighbourhood culture.
What to Expect
Over three action-packed days, visitors can graze their way through an incredible selection of local restaurant pop-ups and food vendors. The festival features live music and entertainment across two distinct stages (including the Main Stage and the Humbervale Stage), licensed beverage gardens hosted by Great Lakes Brewery, and artisan maker markets.
Family Fun and Community Vibes
Brought to life with the support of community partners, the festival offers plenty of attractions for all ages. Kids and families can check out the Sidorova Inwood Bouncy Castle Fun Zone and swing by the BIA Tent at Royal York for free balloon giveaways on Saturday and Sunday afternoons. Admission is completely free, making it the perfect way to soak up the final weeks of summer in South Etobicoke.
