Italian Week Ottawa is an annual arts and cultural festival that promotes Italian culture in the National Capital Region during June. This year it will be held June 9-19. Originally founded in 1975, the festival is among the longest running arts and cultural festivals in Ottawa. Our mandate is to share Italian cultural experiences with Italians, non-Italians, and visitors in the Ottawa community.

Each year the Ottawa Italian Week Festival builds a rich arts, history, and cultural program to celebrate all aspects of Italian and Italian-Canadian life. The festival offers a variety of free and reasonably priced activities highlighting historical and contemporary Italian art, music, dance, food, literature, film, and design. Events are held throughout Ottawa, with a focus in the Little Italy neighbourhood on and around Preston Street. The Festival’s programming is emblematic of the broader impact Italian-Canadians have had both locally, and nationally. The Festival features annually recurring programming as well as new events, all linked by an overarching and unifying theme.

Highlights​

  • Opening day ceremonies with the mayor and other special guests
  • Bedtime stories with Strega Nona
  • Scavenger hunt with Escape Manor
  • Guide to Italian wines masterclass
  • Ferrari displays
  • Soccer games
  • Performing and visual arts contests
  • Focaccia bread art masterclass
What barbarians there is no listing for the Italian Motorcycle display !!!
We will have to organize one ourselves !
Maybe take over the spot allocated for those Ferrari Upstarts… it will only be their 75th…

I met a new customer yesterday who used to own a V7. He said there is a restaurant owner in Little Italy on Preston St. where the Italian Festival is who has a small museum of Italian motorcycles. He couldn't remember the name of the place.:(

2 years ago we went to a wedding in Calgary. An Italian restaurant in Kensington had a V-7 Racer on display upstairs where they served awesome pizza. I chatted with the owner, but had too many Perroni/Moretti under my belt to remember the story. Definitely a cool place! May also have had a Vespa in there somewhere. It's on fifth avenue, check it out.
