Tastes of Tomorrow 2026: A Festival of Global Identities, presented by Generation1.ca, is a free public festival celebrating the cultures shaping North America’s future. Through global tastes, cultural experiences, research, live conversations, performances, interactive exhibits and audience competitions, the event explores how multicultural communities are transforming human connection, consumer behaviour, innovation and society.
Envisioned and led by award-winning author, researcher and storyteller Arundati Dandapani, the annual summer festival marks Generation1.ca’s 11th year of service and brings together local businesses, newcomers, researchers, policymakers, entrepreneurs and diverse communities to experience, understand and help shape the tastes, identities and choices of tomorrow.
