Opening on Friday, August 15, the 2025 CNE offers attendees an array of new experiences that seem endless. Notable experiences include an unforgettable <a href="https://www.theex.com/attractions/dinner-in-the-sky/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">dinner in the sky</a>, a morning <a href="https://www.theex.com/attractions/coffee-party/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">coffee party</a>, a <a href="https://www.theex.com/attractions/cne-drag-brunch-extravaganza/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">drag brunch</a> with some of Canadaâs most well-known drag performers and the infamous CNE airshow on Labour Day weekend.</p> 125<p>And it wouldnât be the CNE without the lineup of <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" href="https://www.flavournetwork.ca/article/we-rank-the-most-outrageous-foods-at-the-2024-cne-from-worst-to-best/">crazy and wacky foods</a> that are sure to turn heads (and maybe some stomachs).

Other notable new items include chicken nugget cookies, Labubu-inspired cheese curds, a Fruity Pebble corn dog and churro pizza. And if youâre looking for a crazy twist on the classic cotton candy, try The Bacone from Greekery Bakeshop. Itâs oh-so-Canadian and features a spicy habanero bacon cotton candy, which will leave your mouth on fire.

Dirty sodas are trending everywhere right now, especially with Crumbl launching the bevvys in Canada. Plus, when we heard there was a drink with butter and root beer, we instantly thought of the Butterbeer from <em>Harry Potter</em>.</p> 144<p>Like the butter ice cream, this drink tastes a lot like butterscotch. Itâs creamy, sweet and could definitely cool you down on a hot summer day.</p> 145<p>You May Also Like: <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" href="https://www.flavournetwork.ca/article/crumbl-dirty-soda-review/">Crumbl Dirty Sodas Have Launched in Canada, Hereâs Our Review</a></p> 146<div class="wp-caption alignnone" id="attachment_159323"><div class="article-content-image"><div class="corus-image-wrapper" style="max-width:848px;margin:auto"><img alt="" loading="lazy" width="848" height="565" decoding="async" data-nimg="1" class="size-large wp-image-159323" style="color:transparent;width:100%;height:auto" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px" srcSet="https://api.flavournetwork.ca/wp-content/uploads/2025/08/cne-maki-sushi-corn-dog.png?w=848&quality=75 640w, https://api.flavournetwork.ca/wp-content/uploads/2025/08/cne-maki-sushi-corn-dog.png?w=848&quality=75 704w, https://api.flavournetwork.ca/wp-content/uploads/2025/08/cne-maki-sushi-corn-dog.png?w=848&quality=75 750w, https://api.flavournetwork.ca/wp-content/uploads/2025/08/cne-maki-sushi-corn-dog.png?w=848&quality=75 828w, https://api.flavournetwork.ca/wp-content/uploads/2025/08/cne-maki-sushi-corn-dog.png?w=848&quality=75 856w, https://api.flavournetwork.ca/wp-content/uploads/2025/08/cne-maki-sushi-corn-dog.png?w=848&quality=75 1080w, https://api.flavournetwork.ca/wp-content/uploads/2025/08/cne-maki-sushi-corn-dog.png?w=848&quality=75 1200w, https://api.flavournetwork.ca/wp-content/uploads/2025/08/cne-maki-sushi-corn-dog.png?w=848&quality=75 1920w, https://api.flavournetwork.ca/wp-content/uploads/2025/08/cne-maki-sushi-corn-dog.png?w=848&quality=75 2048w, https://api.flavournetwork.ca/wp-content/uploads/2025/08/cne-maki-sushi-corn-dog.png?w=848&quality=75 3840w" src="https://api.flavournetwork.ca/wp-content/uploads/2025/08/cne-maki-sushi-corn-dog.png?w=848&quality=75"/></div></div><p class="wp-caption-text" id="caption-attachment-159323">Maki Sushi Corn Dog</p></div> 147<h2>7.
