What is Italian Heritage Month?

Italian Heritage Month is celebrated every June across Canada, honouring the rich culture, history, and contributions of Italian Canadians. It was established to recognize the significant impact of Italians who began arriving in large numbers in the late 19th and early 20th centuries.

The month-long celebration includes festivals, art exhibits, culinary events, and musical performances, providing an opportunity for all Canadians to explore and appreciate the vibrant traditions and enduring influence of the Italian community in shaping Canada’s diverse heritage.
