Flavours from our homeland, Inuit Nunangat

Ottawa’s premiere event A Taste of the Arctic returns as Tapiriit.
Tapiriit means united in our language, Inuktut.
Join us for an intimate celebration of Inuit culture and the traditions that unite us.

Atii! Let’s go!

Tapiriit celebrates the best of Inuit culture, uniting us through a culinary journey of Inuit country food.
