Every year Ottawa hosts tons of amazing food festivals during the summer months. Here in the National Capital, we are pretty lucky as there always seems to be another food festival to enjoy, such as the Asian food markets, food truck festivals and the mouthwatering Ottawa Ribfest. Ottawa Ribfest returns this year to Ottawa from June 19 to 23, 2019 on Sparks Street. At the festival vendors from across North America come to Sparks Street to compete for the titles of Best Rib, Best Chicken, Best Sauce and People's Choice.
