For 53 years, the Columbus International Festival has striven to bring together different cultures from across the world each November weekend. Formerly known as the United Nations Festival, the event is the United Nations Association USA, Columbus Chapter's largest outreach event, and the largest event of its kind in the country sponsored and implemented by a UNA-USA chapter. Each year, approximately 175-200 booths representing nearly 75 cultures offer arts, crafts, entertainment and food.
Two performance stages offer continuous entertainment throughout the festival, and a children's area offers international arts, crafts and demonstrations for youth of all ages.
In 2000, a health fair component was added to the festival to provide information on local health and fitness as well as global health issues.
A Parade of Nations, held midday both days, winds its way through both halls displaying the cultures represented. Periodically, other events will be held in conjunction with the festival, such as the International Community Forum and Model United Nations exercises.
We are currently looking for exhibitors and entertainers to participate in the Festival! Let us assist you in sharing your unique culture and experience with people of Columbus.
