Get ready — Asado, the vibrant Latin-inspired food and cultural festival, is returning to Stackt Market in Toronto in August 2, 2025 — building on its dynamic 2024 debut and expanding further across the GTA.
Originally hosted at Stackt Market on August 11, 2024, Asado drew foodies, families, and music lovers to enjoy live-fire cooking, Latin food vendors, DJs, dance, and more — all in a festive, open-air atmosphere. The event featured over 50 Latin vendors, authentic grilled meats and drinks, and cultural performances to create an unforgettable experience. It was free with registration via TorontoLatinos.com.
However, in 2025 the festival moved to Assembly Park in Vaughan on June 28–29, expanding to a two‑day format with over 40 vendors, extended music programming, a vendor marketplace, the playful Chancla Throwing Contest, family workshops, and signature Asado grilling led by Copa Cabana Brazilian Steakhouse.
🔄 Back to Stackt?
While 2025’s main Asado event took place at Assembly Park, Stackt Market is scheduled to host Asado-themed events on August 2nd. Asado branding is strongly associated with Stackt Market, and future editions could see returns, especially under the festival’s rapid growth and popularity.

Asado made a fiery, flavorful splash at Stackt Market in 2024 and evolved into a larger multi-day festival in Vaughan for 2025 — full of food, music, dancing, and community spirit. While the main festival has shifted venue, Stackt remains a key part of the Asado narrative, and future events on that site are highly likely.
