Discover Ukrainian culture in Canada and share the Ukrainian spirit at North America’s Largest Ukrainian Street Festival. This is your opportunity to experience Ukrainian culture and hospitality at its best. As always there will be non-stop entertainment with Ukrainian performers from the Greater Toronto Area, Canada, the USA and Ukraine which will include dancers, vocalists and musicians. Don’t miss the YOUTH segment on the grand stage at Jane Street! And if you wish – join the dancing at the evening ZABAVA/Street Dance on both Friday and Saturday.

We outed Ken Kostick back in April as of being Ukrainian descent. We’re not really sure if anyone else noticed, so we’ll take that as the festival organizers are readers of our site 🙂

Ukraine’s Music Sensation MAD HEADS XL perform at a special launch party tonight at ‘My Place’ 2448 Bloor St. West and perform for the public Saturday night as well.
