Fans of the global pop icon can combine their love for the superstar and their passion for food security at these Swiftie events supporting the fight to end hunger in our city.
At a time when one in ten Torontonians are turning to food banks to make ends meet, every contribution matters more than ever.

Plus, if you donate over 100 lbs of food, you’ll also qualify for a chance to win $1,000 cash (and Virgin Radio will donate another $1,000 cash in your name to Daily Bread Food Bank).

Grand prize winners will be announced on Friday, November 15, with Daryn and Deepa.

The Enercare Centre’s One Of A Kind show is one of the largest craft shows in North America, and we are honoured to be their official Give Local charity this year. Attend on Friday, November 22, for a special Taylor Swift-themed day. While you check off your holiday shopping, you can experience free friendship bracelet-making workshops, sing along with a Taylor Swift cover band and rock out at a Swiftie silent disco. Don’t forget to dress in an Eras-inspired outfit for a chance to win One Of A Kind prizes.
Details: One of a Kind Show runs from November 21 – December 1, but the Taylor Swift theme day is November 22. Be sure to add a Daily Bread donation when you purchase your ticket.
