If you are interested in African and Caribbean culture, art, and especially food, then the Afro Carib Fest is a must-attend event for you.

This festival celebrates the diversity of African and Caribbean culture through music, art, dance, food, and cultural experiences.

This year, the festival will be held on Saturday and Sunday, August 24 and 25, at Thompson Memorial Park in the Scarborough area.

A variety of exciting activities await visitors at this festival, including live music, live performances by artists, African dance competitions, interactive activities, and more.

Food vendors will also be present with their food trucks, ensuring you won’t go hungry!

This festival was established in 2012 with the goal of bridging social, cultural, and economic gaps, promoting community development, creating opportunities for local artists and businesses, and strengthening networking opportunities among diverse groups.

The Heritage Skills Development Centre (HSDC) is the host of the Afro-Carib Fest.

This center is a non-profit organization founded in 1993 to enhance the self-sufficiency, social, cultural, and economic well-being of new immigrants, low-income groups, at-risk, and marginalized individuals in the Greater Toronto Area (GTA).
