The Festival of Nations is celebrating its 84th year May 5-8 at the St. Paul RiverCentre. The Festival of Nations is the largest and longest running multicultural festival in Minnesota, celebrating cultural diversity with food, music, demonstrations, bazaar, exhibits, and dance. This annual celebration of our diverse community attracts 50,000 people each year. It would not be possible without the commitment of hundreds of volunteers who work a 3 or 4-hour shift staffing booths, helping with setup and teardown, cleaning tables, and greeting visitors. Volunteers will receive free admission to the Festival. Those working on Thursday or Friday during student hours (Thursday, 9-3 and Friday, 9:30-4:30) will receive a complimentary ticket for use over the weekend.
