In keeping with Toronto’s summer vibe of mounting the biggest events, Little Manila along Bathurst and Wilson in North York will play host to a much-awaited Filipino Street Festival, FUN PHILIPPINES! Organized by the Philippine Legacy and Cultural Alliance (PLACA), the non-profit organization that mounted the highly successful Taste of Manila in 2019, will celebrate 2022 with food, music, and culture in an all-embracing way.
Colourful and vibrant parades will make their way on Saturday and Sunday showcasing Philippine regional festivals that even the visitors can participate in.
This year promises a more fun and most meaningful experience, as it provides significant attention to the unique flavours, history and culture of each Philippine region and the country’s 3 major island groups. With the 1 km stretch of Bathurst St. lined with food and craft vendors, lively street activities and eye-catching Filipino cultural installations, the street festival will be a summer to remember!
FUN PHILIPPINES will continue to partner with TFC, The Filipino Channel, as its exclusive Media and Entertainment partner.
Reconnecting after the pandemic is paramount to the organizers’ minds to ensure that communities will find reason to engage, enjoy outdoor activities with friends and family. It will be an exciting celebration of Filipino culture and community this July!
