CULTURAL FESTIVALS
Cultural Festivals are open-air celebrations where a specific heritage, community, or tradition claims the day: food vendors serving dishes tied to a homeland, live music carrying a country’s rhythm, dancers in traditional dress, neighborhoods turning a city block into a living expression of where they come from.
