Why was Taste of Mississauga postponed?
According to the announcement sent to vendors, the City of Mississauga had not approved the event for August 22–23.
Organizers said that following recent activities and heavy public gatherings on August 14, the City began implementing additional procedures and requirements for public events. This reportedly delayed the approval process for Taste of Mississauga.
Moving the festival to September 5–6 gives organizers additional time to complete the required approval process and prepare for the event.
What happens to existing vendor bookings?
Existing vendor bookings will remain confirmed and are expected to transfer to the new September 5–6 dates.
Vendors who cannot participate during the rescheduled weekend should contact the organizers directly to discuss the available options.
Organizers acknowledged that the postponement may inconvenience vendors who have already arranged food supplies, employees, transportation, equipment or promotional materials for the August weekend.
