If you, like us, believe there's no such thing as too much garlic, you're in luck: an entire festival devoted to it is coming to Toronto.
We may be on the cusp of spooky season, but vampires ought to give Toronto a wide berth this weekend as the cherished annual Toronto Garlic Festival makes its grand return.
Back for its 14th year, the festival is coming in hot, ready to drench Spadina Road in allium-scented goodness this Sunday, Sept. 28.
Only time will tell what the standout, out-of-the-box garlic items of Toronto Garlic Fest 2025 will be, but, as long as you don't mind rocking severe garlic breath for the rest of the day, they're all worth a try.
Toronto Garlic Festival takes place on Sunday, Sept. 28, from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m., on Spadina Road, from Davenport Road to Dupont Street.
