The summer food fest is a favourite for its multi-day festivities devoted to all things Jerk.
And in addition to devouring the Caribbean classic all day, previous years’ festival-goers have participated in Hot & Spicy Jerk Chicken-eating competitions, and Jerk Chicken seasoning workshops.
So you know this year is going to be filled with delicious fun, too.
