Mark your calendars for Roanoke’s premier multicultural festival with an international flavor. Now in it’s 35th, the Local Colors Festival features an Opening Ceremony, performances, and dozens of vendor booths representing cultures from around the globe. There will be cuisine, artisan booths, educational and cultural displays, and community partners. The children’s area has fun, interactive activities for youth to learn about different cultures. Plus, the international beer truck will be back! Admission is free.
Vendor space is full and applications are closed. We are excited to have food options from 17 countries/US territories plus a host of artisan crafts and more. Elmwood Park will be brimming with multicultural activity!
Stay tuned for our performance schedule and a list of commonly asked questions.
