Due to the COVID 19 pandemic, the 2020 Ribfest has been postponed until 2021.

We invite you to join us in our 11th annual Brantford Kinsmen Ribfest, taking place August 6 – 8, 2021 with scrumptiously delicious mouthwatering ribs and chicken. Featuring the tastiest treats like roasted corn, blooming onions, cornbread, baked beans, fresh coleslaw and sizzling hot fries, this festival is heaven for food lovers. Help us welcome North America’s greatest rib teams as they compete for top awards including Best Ribs, Best Chicken, Best Sauce, Best Pig Rig and People’s Choice.

Nestled next to the picturesque Grand River, Brantford’s Cockshutt park makes for the perfect outdoor setting for this festival enjoyed by locals and tourists alike. The park will be packed with family-friendly fun including bouncy castles & inflatables, carnival games, train rides, what-a-ball, Batman, Disney Princesses, and a rib-eating contest!

Soak up the summer sun, relax in our beer garden with a refreshing beverage, and enjoy live musical entertainment at Brantford’s 11th annual ribfest!

Friday, August 6th: 4pm to 11pm Saturday, August 7th: 11am to 11pm Sunday, August 8th: 11am to 7:00pm Location: Brantford Civic Center, 79 Market St., S. Brantford, ON. N3S 2E4. Admission is FREE (donations are accepted)
