UPDATE II: In lieu of the in-person Ethnic Enrichment Festival, we will be hosting a Virtual Ethnic Festival. Watch it HERE.

Feel the world beat in the heart of America. This event is one of the largest festivals of its kind in the country and features more than 60 different cultures selling their native foods, crafts and performing ethnic music and dances. The festival is held during the third full weekend of August near the front entrance of historic Swope Park. (The 2020 Ethnic Enrichment Festival has been cancelled)
