The Taste of Little Italy

An opportunity to capture and explore the tastes and sounds of Italy and more right in the middle of Toronto as College Street transforms into a classic Italian piazza.

All weekend you’ll have a chance to taste classic italian food, fuzion restaurants, wine and cocktails on extended patios, authentic Spiducci and more while taking in performances from international and local artists as you explore the authentic culture of Italy on College Street. College St. is much more than just Italian as it has grown to a epic food and drink centre in Toronto with a variety of cultural cuisine, fuzion recipes and speciality cocktail focuses.

From restaurants and street vendors to the myriad of free tastings and samples, you won’t leave unsatisfied. Just make sure to come on an empty stomach — it’s the only way you can properly enjoy all the classics — like authentic Italian pasta, wood-fired pizza, and tradition and non-traditional flavours of gelato. If you’re looking for something a bit different, you won’t be disappointed, as the festival is known for it’s diverse and multicultural food options.

The massive weekend festival will transform the heart of Little Italy into a bustling street festival. Located in the beautiful neighborhood of Little Italy on College St. in Toronto, Ontario. Enjoy live music on multiple street corners and on the main stage, extended patios, multicultural vendors, amazing food, and carnival rides.
