Auckland International Cultural Festival

13 January, 2017

Celebrate living in our global village at the Auckland International Cultural Festival

Living in a global village means living in a world rich with culture, tradition, and culinary delights.

Auckland Council is seeking expressions of interest from cultural performers, musicians, sports people, communities, and foodies wanting to celebrate diversity at the 18th annual Auckland International Cultural Festival. Submissions close 5pm, Friday 3 February 2017.

The festival is held at the Mt Roskill War Memorial Park on Sunday 2 April.

Albert-Eden-Roskill Councillor Cathy Casey is enthusiastic about the well-established event:

“The Auckland region is made up of a myriad of international communities. As a woman born in Scotland and now a New Zealand citizen, this festival is a marvelous opportunity for all cultures to come together to celebrate what makes us unique in our shared hometown. The sights, sounds, games and flavours that make up this spectacular free family event, is a highlight on the Auckland Council events calendar.”

Last year, 50 nationalities were represented at the festival and more than 100 food stalls provided festival goers with a global experience. Don’t miss out on this celebration of community and diversity.
