“The Muslim population in Canada is the fastest-growing religious group and the needs of this market continue to grow,” says Faizal Kagdi and Salima Jivraj, Co-Founders of Halal Food Festival Toronto. “Foodies – Muslim or not – are always excited to attend each year to see what new things they can try during the two-day festival.”
Aside from eating, look forward to a shopping bazaar, “an insightful session from HMA Canada (Halal Monitoring Authority) on the value and importance of halal certification,” Cake Walk, an annual cake decorating competition, children’s cooking classes, and a 14,000 square foot Kids Zone included with admission.
