The largest Tamil street festival of its kind is coming to the GTA

Though we’re nearing the last weekend of August, that doesn’t mean summer is over just yet! We still have a few fun events coming up this weekend, one of them being the annual Tamil Fest. Get ready for two days of delicious cuisine, cultural performances, artistic talents, and more.

On August 26th and 27th, Tamil Fest hosted by Canadian Tamil Congress, will bring its beloved event to Markham, right on Markham Rd.

According to organizers, “Tamil Fest focuses on promoting diversity by sharing the rich Tamil Culture among fellow Torontonians and Canadians, through great exposure to cultural food, artistic talents, and traditional activities.”
