2023 Toronto Chinatown Festival
On August 19 & 20, 2023, the Toronto Chinatown Business Improvement Area (CBIA) will host its 23rd Toronto Chinatown Festival (TCF) under the theme of “Flaming Phoenix: Rebirth & Uprising” (開心消費,振興經濟). One of the main missions of the CBIA is to create exciting community events to promote the area and draw locals and visitor to dine, shop and explore Toronto Chinatown. The TCF is CBIA’s signature event of the year, attracting estimated over 250,000 visitors during the two-day event.
2023 marks the rebirth of our economy in our beloved city. As people return to work and major events resume operating, it is expected that Downtown Toronto will once become the hot spot like it once was, before the pandemic. To collect the power of the community for the rebirth of our city, we propose the theme of this year’s TCF: “Flaming Phoenix: Rebirth & Uprising”. In Chinese mythology, the Phoenix (Fenghuang / 鳳凰) is an immortal bird whose rare appearance is said to be an omen foretelling harmony at the ascent to the throne of a new emperor.

    I only got my haircut once or twice there while I lived in Kensington, and even I feel nostalgic while watching this - can't imagine how it must feel for people who grew up with them in their neighbourhood, or visiting since they were kids. Chinatown has a ton of culture and history that add to this city, so it's cool to see a channel documenting it so intimately and respectfully. Cheers
