Toronto's Nathan Phillips Square is set to light up with the sounds and flavours of the Caribbean as the Trinbago Toronto Festival comes back to the city next month, celebrating the rich culture of Trinidad and Tobago with music, dance and, of course, delectable Caribbean eats.
Cue steelpan rhythms, soca and calypso beats, and food that will have you going back for doubles (literally, as doubles, roti, and everything jerk will be on tap).
Aside from the music and food, you know you can expect vibrant costumes, local vendors, and tons of opportunities to relish in the island vibes without leaving the downtown core.
It's also completely free to attend, taking place over the first weekend of September — perfect for those already missing Caribana spirit.
Trinbago Toronto Festival takes place September 5 to 7 at Nathan Phillips Square, located at 100 Queen Street West.
