Toronto Comic Arts Festival

The Toronto Comic Arts Festival (TCAF) is a comic book festival held annually in Toronto, Ontario, Canada. Since its founding in 2003, TCAF has grown to become one of the world’s largest festivals dedicated to the promotion and appreciation of comic arts.

TCAF focuses on alternative and independent comics, but includes other creative arts besides comics. Unlike traditional comic book conventions, TCAF is modeled off of independent comic festivals and art book fairs such as the Angoulême International Comics Festival and Small Press Expo.

TCAF is a free-admission event.

TCAF was founded by Peter Birkemoe and Chris Butcher of The Beguiling in 2003. The festival was held biennially until 2009, when in partnership with the Toronto Public Library it became an annual event. Starting that year, the festival took place at the Toronto Reference Library until 2024. The 2025 festival will take place at Toronto Metropolitan University's Mattamy Athletic Centre.
