Taste of Asia, Canada’s largest Asian festival, is an annual event organized by the City of Markham, F.C.C.M, and APMC, is an exciting, high-energy event that has been celebrating harmony, cuisine and culture for the past sixteen years. We have pledged to bring more culturally diverse activities to the GTA- both flavorful and fun!

Taste of Asia was first introduced in 2003 during the SARS outbreak with a mandate of boosting the local economy. The first Taste of Asia festival also provided a platform for the community to promote the multicultural mosaic of Canada and create harmony between various cultural groups through an event that fostered mutual respect and co-operation. The annual multicultural event is hosted by the Federation of Chinese Canadians in Markham (FCCM), the Association of Progressive Muslims of Canada (APMC) and the City of Markham. Markham Mayor, Frank Scarpitti, not only endorses the festival, he is also the co-chair of Taste of Asia.
