Toronto is known for its Jamaican patties, with so many people trying to prove that their favourite spot is the best in the city.

With the love for patties the city has, it's not a surprise that this beloved snack should be celebrated and luckily for us, Toronto is getting a Jamaican patty festival this summer.

The York-Eglinton BIA announced today that the city will be getting a festival dedicated to delicious pastry.

Happy Jamaican #PattyDay #Toronto!

To celebrate this landmark day, we are pleased to announce that the inaugural #TorontoPattyFest presented by the Afro-Caribbean Farmers' Market & @yorkeglintonbia will take place on August 6, 2022 in the heart of #LittleJamaicaTO #EglintonWest! pic.twitter.com/eSum1NYCzX
