This is so wrong! Stop reducing our way of celebrating our culture.

This is a great festival that brings the African Diaspora together. Even better, unlike the Caribana weekend, no one gets killed and there are no report of incidents where people get seriously hurt. Save Afrofest,

Afro fest weekend is a weekend we all get to come together and enjoy our Africa culture. Please do not cut that short.

Very important festival to celebrate the African community in Toronto, esp for people of all origins and ethic groups to celebrate with us and appreciate the African culture...music and food is the soul of the people of Africa! We need 2 days to celebrate all the African talent!

This event happens once a year and brings in so many people from the black diaspora to enjoy each other's culture, food and people. This is a disgrace

Afro Fest breaks down racial barriers it is a very iimport event to dispell racialized biases. It is an event that puts Toronto on the map by being inclusive and valuing diversity.

Afrofest is an important event in our city that should be supported not impeded. Keep Afrofest for two days and bring it back to Queens Park!

This festival is much more than the music. It is the exhibits, the food, The multi- cultural attendees and the young artist showcase.
