Events Description

 

Our city’s strongest snack opinions are about to collide.

Think you can build the ultimate store-bought snack combo for $5 or less before tax?

Bring it to Simcoe Park on August 24 and let the people decide.

Your snack goes on display. Everyone votes. One snack becomes Toronto’s Best $5 Snack.

Not competing? Show up to vote, hang out and see what happens.

Bonus: The first 20 competitors to check in receive a mini portrait on-the-spot from Toronto’s own Jas Boyd.

If you’ve never watched strangers become emotionally invested in a $5 snack competition, you’re missing out.

We’re also planning a few side quests. They’re easier to experience than explain.
