Roncesvalles Polish Festival Toronto

Roncesvalles Polish Festival Toronto Hello, Cześć, Boozhoo, Tansi, and Bonjour!

You’re invited to the Roncesvalles Polish Festival - happening September 19-20, 2026

Celebrate culture, community, and connection with us on vibrant Roncesvalles Avenue! It’s been a long 2 years since we were able to be together to celebrate in Roncesvalles Village, and the unique heritage of this neighbourhood, at our weekend festival. Building on the long history of the Polish Festival, you are sure to find fan favourites, like Polka and pierogi, in conjunction with a fresh focus to celebrate a broader range of local artists, musicians and, of course, food. We are also thrilled to share that our community music and arts festival, Roncy Rocks which previously took place in June, will now be part of the Roncesvalles Festival, which means at this years’ fall festival we will all get more of what makes Roncy Rock! Combining old world charm with today’s Roncesvalles Village; well-known as one of Toronto’s most vibrant, unique, and creative communities, attendees will find an amazing variety of global cuisines from local eateries, exceptional shopping, and quality services, as well as performances by talented local artists and musicians, including Indigenous programming and family friendly activities! Whether it’s your 1st time or your 15th, we can’t wait to say Hello, Cześć, Boozhoo, Tansi, and Bonjour and welcome you to Roncesvalles Village! Now entering its fifteenth year, the Roncesvalles Polish Festival is funded and managed by the Roncesvalles Village BIA; made up of more than 270 members in Toronto’s West End, serving our community of more than 16 thousand residents for over 35 years.

Roncy served, and we mean SERVED 🍽️🇵🇱

This weekend, Roncesvalles Ave turned into the ultimate spread of Polish cuisine (and so many fusions of Polish and other cuisines!!).

A few of our favourites:

🥟 Pierogi, stuffed, fried, boiled, and utterly perfect
🌭 Kiełbasa, grilled and smoky
🥬 Gołąbki, cabbage rolls done right
🥒 Ogórki, the pickles that pull it all together
🍲 Bigos, Poland’s classic hunter’s stew
🍩 Pączki, because dessert is non-negotiable
🥞 Placki ziemniaczane, crispy potato pancakes
🍺 And of course, ice-cold Polish b**r to wash it all down

Twenty years in, and the food never disappoints. What was your favourite bite of the weekend? Tell us below! 👇🇵🇱
