Italfest was founded in 2012 by a group of passionate Canadian Italians, dedicated to preserving time-honoured
traditions and became a Not-For-Profit Incorporated Company in 2015. Italfest annually takes place in August mirroring
Italy’s national holiday, Ferragosto and is a free festival where visitors can enjoy an authentic Taste of Italy. Featuring an
interactive Heritage and Cultural pavilion with historical displays and demonstrations, Italfest shares cultural highlights
through traditional family activities like watermelon, pasta, pizza eating, and cheese rolling contests. Italians from
across Ontario flock to enter the exciting Bocce Ball tournament and Italian card games contests A variety of delicious
authentic food, face-painting, magic, and puppet shows, stilt-walkers, a soccer challenge and sports-zone inflatables,
