Record breaking attendance at this year's event
August 13, 2007, TORONTO -- Despite a couple of hours of rain on Sunday afternoon, The Krinos Taste of the Danforth experienced record crowds. In 2006 the festival drew approx 1.2 to 1.3 million people. This year the festival drew over 1.4 million people.
Local Danforth businesses were thrilled saying that this year's Friday night was more like a Saturday night and Saturday night was clearly a record breaker.
Spokesperson and programmer Howard Lichtman attributes the success to the warmth of the Danforth community and the introduction of a number of new elements including the Celebrity stage, the "Taste of Broadway," the Olympiada and the Sports zone.
