A festival of multiculturalism that will delight all your senses
One of my favourite events on the Queanbeyan calendar is the Multicultural Festival, held at Queanbeyan Park. It has all the fun and gaiety that you would expect from a multicultural festival, without having to squeeze through tightly-packed crowds for ages to find what you want. It’s like a more relaxed, friendly version of some of the bigger multicultural festivals around – just the way I like it!
Despite its smaller size, the Multicultural Festival continues to attracts the crowds. And it’s easy to see why. It has everything to delight the senses, from the sights and sounds of the performers, to the smell and taste of delicious food from around the globe – and for a more tactile experience, there’s a variety of activities to keep your children (and you) entertained.
To eat, I chose the dumplings – which were very yummy!
My favourite performers on the day were the Russian dancers – probably because I did Ukrainian dancing as a child, and they connected me with my Ukrainian heritage.
