2007 - Event Details below:
Canada’s Largest Ribfest is returning this Labour Day Weekend in the beautiful Spencer Smith Park right on the waterfront (Downtown Burlington, Ontario).
In its 13th year, Canada’s Largest Ribfest attracts Ribbers from all over North America to come and cook their famous ribs. Bring your family and friends this year and judge for yourself. While the main draw to the fest is the tasty, messy ribs, there is a lot more fun entertainment for the whole family!
There are two stages this year which means more music and more headliners! Enjoy various blues, jazz and folk music from top contenders. This year’s headliners include: Robbie Lane and the Disciples, Jack Dekeyzer and The Downchild Blues Band. On Monday join us for Parrothead Day with Northern Harbour playing the laid back tunes of Jimmy Buffett.
Children young and old can enjoy the kid’s area for those who want to soak up the last bit of summer fun before going back to school. Also, you can browse and shop at the Artisan Fair (crafts-by-the-lake) where crafters showcase and sell beautiful hand-made Canadian and third world crafts including jewellery, photographic prints, paintings, fine art glass, wood carvings, clothes, home décor, candy, fudge, and lots more!
