Indeed, there is no place like home, especially when the emotional pull of home is strong and deeply rooted in the Caribbean. JerkFest Toronto 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.

JerkFest is an annual event celebrating jerk cuisine and Caribbean culture organized by not-for-profit organization Caribbean Promotions Arts & Culture Inc. After two years of virtual livestreams, JerkFest is returning to their annual in-person celebration at Centennial Park as the top food and music festival. Watch Centennial Park come alive again with authentic and delicious Jerk cuisine, outstanding performances,  entertainment, family fun and activities from August 5 to August 7.
