About Event
10th year celebration
Organized by the Society of Philippine Artists, Recreation and Community (SPARC), a non-profit organization whose people behind it have organized successful events in the community, the Taste of Manila 2023 festival promises to be a better, merrier and a bigger celebration!
Recognized as the original Filipino street festival in Toronto, ON, it is fully supported by the City of Toronto and the Government of Ontario. As we try to disrupt the way festivals are held in Ontario, we promise to hold an exciting street party that has never been seen before.
Attendance
- With our early promotion plan on social media and traditional print ad advertising (including flyers+posters), we will definitely reach more than the average of 300,000 yearly attendees.
- Our advertising plan also includes the mainstream Canadian media.
Multi-Cultural Vendors
- With the absence in 2023 of other big festivals in Toronto, Taste of Manila has become the 2nd largest festival in Ontario.
- We definitely will attract more than the regular 135 vendors in the past as we fill the 2-klm stretch of Bathurst St from Wilson Ave/Bathurst St. all the way to York Downs Dr/Bathurst St.
A Week Of Events
We will celebrate the Taste of Manila 2023 as a whole week not just a 2-day event.

- Seminar for small business owners to help them prepare for the festival
