According to JerkFest Toronto, “The festival was born out of nostalgia, to reminisce, connect and create new memories of the islands in a new country outside of those familiar tropical vibes.”

Today, JerkFest is one of Ontario’s most prominent and hottest summer festivals with the three-day event celebrating jerk cuisine, music and family entertainment.

The 2024 festival runs from August 9th – 11th.

Each day will feature a different performance such as Masika, Maria Griffiths and Famer Nappy.

Tickets start at $49.50, but pick your day wisely depending of which performance you want to see!

No need to take out cash for your food and drinks as the festival is completely cashless for 2024!

Get ready to eat some amazing Caribbean food and dance the night away, Toronto!
