Haley writes everything from crossword puzzles to theatre reviews to musicals about mythical serpents and neighbourhood cats, and she enjoys on-the-spot riffing with pungent puns and tangy tongue-twisters.

Toronto Garlic Festival: Vampire Costume Contest, Judged by Bity-Bat

  Join us at the Toronto Garlic Festival Vampire Costume Contest for a fang-tastic time! Whether you’re a young vampire enthusiast or a seasoned bloodsucker, this contest has a category for everyone.

Contest Categories

  • Children (0 – 12 years): Individual
  • Youth (13 – 18 years): Individual
  • Adults (19+ years): Individual
  • Groups (2+ people): All ages
Note: Contestants cannot compete in both individual and group categories.  

Judging Criteria

Costumes are judged by Bitty-Bat on several key elements, including:
  • Originality: Whether the costume is store-bought, crafted, or a combination of both.
  • Craftsmanship Accuracy: How closely it resembles the original character (if portraying a specific vampire).
  • Craftsmanship Quality: The quality and attention to detail in sewing, painting, makeup, and overall fit.
  • Technique: The use of a variety of difficult or creative skills.
  • Time Invested: The effort put into creating the costume (e.g., more than one week vs. less than one week).
  • Performance & Stage Presence: Creativity, entertainment value, and how well the costume is performed, including a potential reaction to garlic!

 

How to Participate

  • Free to enter! Simply show up in your best vampire attire and wow the judges.
  • The contest will run in rounds, with each category being judged separately. Prizes will be awarded after each category.
  • Pre-registration Perk: Sign up ahead of time, and you’ll receive a free garlic bulb when you arrive in costume at the contest area. Sign up here:
 

Prizes:

The prize is…Ontario garlic. Why give garlic to a vampire? Exposure therapy — one bulb at a time until they can  walk past an Italian restaurant without bursting into flames.    

Contest Date

  • Sunday, September 28, 2025, from 1 to 1:45 pm
  • Contest Location: The Music Stage at Toronto Garlic Festival
  • Festival Location: It’s a streetfest. We’re closing  Spadina Rd between Davenport Rd and Dupont St.  Free admission to the Festival.
 

About Bitty-Bat

Bitty-Bat (pictured above)  is a mischievous bat-like creature who has charmed audiences through performances at Toronto Sketchfest, Toronto Fringe, the Montreal Clown Festival and Edinburgh Fringe. This enigmatic character is the creation of Toronto-based actor and clown Emily Jeffers, who drew inspiration from the 1922 film Nosferatu, dancer Loie Fuller, the “Bat Child Found in Cave” from the Weekly World News, and other influences to develop Bitty-Bat’s unique look. Although she is usually a creature of few words, Bitty-Bat is delighted to speak (or squeak) as emcee at the Toronto Garlic Festival’s Vampire Costume Contest.

Featured at 2025 Toronto Garlic Festival: Toum (3 or 4 flavours)
Food Options: Gluten Free, Low Sugar, Keto Friendly, Nut-free, Vegan
Our Story: We make Toum — the bold, fluffy Lebanese garlic dip — now in four mouthwatering flavours: Original, Basil, Buffalo, and our newest addition, Chipotle. At its heart is our signature recipe: just four simple ingredients — fresh garlic, fresh lemon juice, oil, and salt. That’s it. And during Ontario’s garlic season, we take it up a notch by sourcing our garlic locally from the incredible Brant County Garlic Company. We’re proud to support local farmers, and even prouder to bring that flavour to your table. Catch us again this year at the Ontario Garlic Festival — it’s going to be garlicky and glorious.

ON Garlic Supplier: To be Confirmed
Our Story: From the moment we opened in November 2024, sourcing our ingredients sustainably and locally has been a value deeply rooted in everything we do at louf. We work closely with farmers, brewers, and distillers across Ontario to bring in seasonal produce, ethically raised meat, and sustainable products that shape everything from the dishes we serve to the cocktails we craft. They are paired with Palestinian sourced imports such as olive oil, spices, and za’atar, creating a menu that bridges cultures and brings together the flavours of Palestine with the richness of Canada. Every ingredient we source from Ontario reflects a connection to the communities around us, and a shared commitment to nourishing one another. “I very much believe that louf has its place among all the restaurants in Toronto, bringing together the flavours of Palestine, the stories of Palestine, and the exceptional products that we are sourcing in Ontario as well as from Palestine,” said Chef Fadi Kattan. Here are just some of the ingredients we source from Canadian farmers and producers, which we would love to feature in our booth offerings: Ohme Farms (Niagara Region, ON) – Olive plant, English mint, oyster mushrooms (sourced via Country Boys Produce) Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/ohmefarms/?hl=en Zicari Greenhouses (Lowbanks, ON) – Blood sorrel and edible flowers (sourced via Country Boys Produce) Website: https://www.zicarigreenhouse.ca Monforte Dairy (Stratford, ON) – Artisanal cheeses Website: https://monfortedairy.com Nebo Farm (Markham, ON) – Black oyster mushrooms, sage, marjoram, mint Website: https://nebomushrooms.com Piccioni Bros Mushroom Farm (Hamilton, ON) – cremini mushrooms Google Profile: https://g.co/kgs/a9TRjBm Rutledge Farms (Melancthon, ON) – Potatoes Website: https://www.rutledgepotatofarms.com Rosewood Estates (Beamsville, ON) – Honey Website: https://rosewoodwine.com Greenway Farms (Stouffville, ON) – Carrots, beets, turnips Website: https://www.greenwayfarms.ca The Butcher Shoppe (Etobicoke, ON) – Halal Meat Selection Website: https://butchershoppedirect.com/collections Southbrook Vineyards (Niagara-on-the-Lake, ON) – Organic Wine Selection Website: https://www.southbrook.com/about/ Collective Arts Brewing (Hamilton, ON) – Alcoholic and Non-Alcoholic Beer Selection Website: https://collectiveartscreativity.com Juice Concepts (Etobicoke, ON) – Fresh Juice Selection Website: https://www.juiceconcepts.ca/about The County Bounty (Greater Napanee, ON) – Artisanal Soda Website: https://www.thecountybounty.com

Our Story: we buy fresh produce from 100km foods as our local supplier. Occasionally we have purchased produce via our customers who have friends or relatives with local or regional farms, but it’s been informal that we don’t have names reserved. Thankfully they are usually repeat customers so we’ve been able to purchase again.
