Toronto Ribfest

I have been to Toronto Ribfest two years in a row , and can’t wait for this year. The vendors they get are always super nice and the food is great. I really like how they get the community to come together and volunteer. I’ll be bringing my son this year and he’s looking forward to having some ribs! Just like his old man❤️ The live music is a really nice touch as well. Looking forward to it for sure!

Went with hubby’s parents for their Anniversary! They have been to Toronto Ribfest a few times before but It was our very first time! The little one loved it she didn’t want to leave the kiddie rides! Very big, green park and nice stroll towards the sounds of the festival ahead! When you enter you are greater to a heavenly smoky smell in the air followed by a whole bunch of smiles, laughter and a lot of “mmm” and “wow” in the air. There were many Ribfest booths where you can try their sauces first determine how much sweet or spicy your tongue is feeling for. So much Games, Corn, Food and Rides for anyone, and so... much... ribs! I never had wine in a can until I went this year. We all had so much fun! You will NOT be going home hungry! Pack light, Bring a hat, umbrella, cameras, water bottles, and comfortable clothing when you go because it’s usually a pretty HOT day!

Fun experience if you have the right friends and the weather is nice. Food is overpriced but as expected. And if you dont like pork ribs, you're SOL because beef ribs aren't available 95% of the time. Overall enjoyed it, had Alabama Lemonade (when the pumps are working and its sweetened just right) and giant corn dogs are always great!

Great event. Ribs were so good. Only the place was too crowded but it was expected since this is a great annual event loved by all people in Toronto

This was our first time experiencing Toronto International Ribfest and I could boldly say it was not a disappointment. It is always exciting to enjoy food and festivities with people of various cultures, lifestyles and all come together for some of the finest ribs North America has to offer. From home brewed Iced Teas, Funnel Cakes to what you are really there for, RIBS this event is like no other. Prices are moderately pricey but you certainly get your money’s worth. A full rack of ribs depending on the type of meat can cost $25+ for a full rack $16+ for a half rack $10+ for a 1/3 or 1/4 rack. In addition cornbread, baked beans (which no matter where you get them), and coleslaw is remarkably tasty. Some of the best ribs were from Camp 31, Texas Ranger, Sticky Fingers, Hogfathers. Many of them have award winning sauces. You don’t just get ribs here you get great music, a theme park for the kids, and various water stations and beverages stations to satisfy your thirst during those extra hot meals or days. There are lounges to eat your meals and places to retire your recyclables without walking too far. If you’d like the sauces to make your own creations at home all the various rib-creating wizards sell their special sauces for affordable prices. $5-7 for the average bottle. I certainly look forward to having the pleasure of enjoying this “like no other” event. See you there next year!
