CHIN Picnic
One of Toronto's most popular annual multicultural events, the CHIN Picnic is held every summer at Exhibition Place. The event, which spans several days, includes musical and dance performers, amusement park rides, an international shopping bazaar and international food concessions.
The first CHIN Picnic was held in 1967.
The picnic has also been controversial at times, as it includes a bikini contest. In response to allegations of sexism, the picnic later launched an annual Mr. CHIN Bikini contest for men.

Famous quotes containing the word chin:
“Then he rang the bell and ordered a ham sandwich. When the maid placed the plate on the table, he deliberately looked away but as soon as the door had shut, he grabbed the sandwich with both hands, immediately soiled his fingers and chin with the hanging margin of fat and, grunting greedily, began to much.”
—Vladimir Nabokov (1899–1977)
