Paris Drinks Fest is a celebration of drinks, food, live music, and community outdoors at Syl Apps Community Centre in downtown Paris, Ontario. The highly anticipated summer event hosts a two day festival during the weekend of August 14-15, 2026. With 30+ food & drink vendors and a full weekend of live music from top Canadian talent we would love for you to be a part of this signature community event.

WHAT TO EXPECT AT PARIS DRINKS FEST

New to Paris Drinks Fest? Here’s how it works!

When you arrive, you’ll receive your reusable Paris Drinks Fest sampling cup and two tokens to get you started.

Food and drink samples are purchased using festival tokens throughout the festival.

• Tokens are $2 each
• Samples start at 2 tokens, depending on the vendor
• Use your tokens for drink samples, food, snacks and more
• Purchase tokens on site using cash or card
• Our Token Roamers will also be around the festival if you need to top up without missing the fun
• Pre-purchased tokens can be picked up when you arrive
• Have tokens left over from a previous Paris Drinks Fest? Bring them! They’re still good this year.

Grab your cup, load up on tokens and make your way through 25+ food and drink vendors all weekend long.
