What’s On This Weekend in Toronto
Family Weekend Events in Toronto
I also don’t understand why they take away people’s water! I was there last year and it was HOT. Ridiculous to be taking water away from people. They also need more vendors as the lines were insane, we waited for 20 to 30 minutes for ribs and all the lines were at least that long. Standing in the boiling heat. Not a pleasant afternoon. It is a shame cause the ribs were delicious but just not worth going through all that. I will be getting my ribs at a nice comfy, cool restaurant next time.
Terrible event, the food was extremely expensive and low in quality especially the beef ribs more fat than meat. On an extremely hot day they would confiscate water bottles or force you to empty them regardless of if your child or an elderly this is extremely dangerous especially during extremely hot days where you have to wait in line to purchase water and to rehydrate. Overall I would personally give it a one star. I’ve been at this event multiple times throughout the years and 2023 was one of the worst.
Will any vendors carry beef ribs or are all exclusively pork?
Both options and various other foods are available.
Are they still taking away peoples water at the entrance? They took my water, kids water, inspected their water bottles and searched the handicaps personal belonging a few years ago.
Definitely not going back as no other ribfest takes away their water bottles to force them to buy theirs!
