Burgers worth talking about, coast to coast

This 100% Canadian food festival celebrates the most creative and original burgers across the country. Each restaurant designs a one-of-a-kind burger for the occasion—bold, gourmet, surprising or refined—and the public is invited to discover them, vote, and share their favourites.

Launched in 2012, the event has grown into a nationwide celebration, drawing in thousands of visitors on our website and into participating restaurants across Canada.

In your restaurant, for a full week of local flavour.

The festival takes place from September 1 to 7, 2025, directly in participating restaurants across Canada.

Each spot serves their burger for dine-in or takeout, depending on their usual service.
You choose your hours, your quantities, and your style — we focus on bringing the crowd to you.

You create a burger. We take care of the rest.

People will visit or order from your restaurant, and we help attract customers through engaging marketing, visual tools and fun concepts to spotlight your creation.

They’ll vote directly on our website for their favourite burger. Yours could become the best burger in your city or even across Canada.

Several options are available based on your budget and desired visibility.

Each package includes a web profile, promo materials, and exposure through our network.
Content creation add-ons (photos, videos, influencer visits) are also available.

$1 per burger sold is donated to Food Banks Canada.

Each participating restaurant commits to donating $1 per burger sold to Food Banks Canada.

It’s a simple yet powerful gesture, tied to a mission we share: relieving hunger today and preventing it tomorrow.
One bite at a time, every contribution makes a real difference.

After the festival, you’ll receive the info needed to complete your donation. And if needed, we’ll follow up to make sure everything goes smoothly.

To keep it simple, we recommend adding $1 to your burger price so the donation is built in without affecting your margins.

These key dates help us prepare the best possible promo for your burger.

No — at least not for now.

We’ve decided to pause the YUM points for this year.

We’re currently rethinking how to make the experience more fun and engaging in a simpler, smoother way.
Thanks for your understanding — and for your patience while we redesign what’s next!
