A massive free summer street party with food trucks and rides is coming to Toronto

A major summer street party is set to return to Toronto, and it’s bringing free rides, live music, and a global mix of food to Eglinton West. Here’s what to know about the Fairbank Summerfest 2025.

The beloved street festival will run from June 20 to 22 along Eglinton Avenue W., just west of Dufferin Street. The annual event is presented by the Fairbank Village BIA and offers three full days of family-friendly fun with admission, rides, and entertainment, all completely free.

The festival attracted more than 80,000 people in 2023 and is expected to draw an even bigger crowd this year.

What to expect

Visitors can expect a full street carnival experience with DJs, live bands, and entertainment for all ages. The event also features a diverse culinary experience with food from around the world, plus a lively sidewalk sale inspired by European open-air markets.

Many of Fairbank Village’s local restaurants and retailers will take part in the festival, joined by a selection of visiting vendors offering everything from food to unique finds.

With no entry fee and activities for the whole family, the event has become a popular early summer tradition in the city.

June in Toronto kicks off the return of street festivals, so needless to say, we’re going to be pretty busy for the next few weeks.
