The Roncesvalles Polish Festival returned on September 19 and 20, 2026. This milestone 20th edition built on the festival's rich history. It featured fan favourites like polka and pierogi, along with a broader range of local artists, musicians and incredible food.
The festival takes place in one of Toronto's most vibrant, unique and creative communities. It pairs old-world charm with the energy of today's Roncesvalles Village. Visitors enjoyed global cuisine from local eateries, great shopping and quality services. There were also live performances by talented artists and musicians, and family-friendly activities.
The Roncesvalles Polish Festival is funded and managed by the Roncesvalles Village BIA, which represents more than 270 local businesses. For over 20 years the festival has been a cornerstone of the community. It serves more than 16,000 residents and welcomes visitors from across the city and beyond.
This milestone year was truly unforgettable. It had amazing pierogi, folk dance performances, colour, tradition, and pure heart and artistry on all four stages. The crowd came out, sang along and danced until the very last song.
Thank you to everyone who came out and made North America's largest celebration of Polish culture so special.
