The Harrisonburg International Festival is a free day of family fun that celebrates the many cultures that make up our community. We feature international foods, music, dance, intercultural art activities for all ages, a language learning area, and the World Bazaar featuring international folk art. Last year we drew about 7000 people.
The 15th Annual Harrisonburg International Festival is scheduled for Saturday, September 29, 2012 from 12 pm – 6 pm at Hillandale Park (off Rte. 42 South).
