Presented by Toronto Comic Arts Festival at The Toronto Reference Library

The Toronto Comic Arts Festival (TCAF) is a comic book festival held annually in Toronto, Ontario. Founded in 2003, TCAF has grown to become one of the world’s largest festivals dedicated to the promotion and appreciation of comic arts.

Activating 4 floors of the Toronto Public Library’s Reference Library at 789 Yonge Street, as well as neighbouring venues, TCAF 2024 will spotlight hundreds of creators, publishers, and comics organizations from around the world.

Featured programming will include talks, panels, classic Q&As, workshops, kids-specific events, and so much more!

Online, TCAF features a shared marketplace where users can shop from over 100 artists and publishers from all over the world and a series of online programs hosted at our YouTube page.
