The Incredible Pie Championship Returns to Mount Pleasant on August 27th


Breaking baking news: After a two-year break, the Incredible Pie Championship is back with a vengeance! This year there are four ways to get involved. You can compete, volunteer, enter the brand new Mystery Box Challenge (a la a Food Network series), or – our personal favourite – shell out $5-10 to taste and vote for your favourite pie. Break out your stretchy pants because the whole pie shindig is going down on 6th Avenue between Ontario & Manitoba on August 27th, as part of the 5th Annual SIX FEST!

Sunday, August 27th | 2:30 – 10pm | DETAILS
