WORLDFEST is the Town of Addison's newest public event in spectacular Addison Circle Park. The festival, Saturday, October 25, is being hosted in partnership with the non-profit DFW International Community Alliance (DFW Int'l) organization.
At WORLDFEST guests will be immersed in the culture of Asia, Europe, Africa, Middle East and of course the Americas as they visit each of five continental pavilions. While traveling through the pavilions, children can participate in a special passport project that encourages and rewards as they learn about each country represented at the event.
Additionally, festival guests will cheer at the Parade of Nations, dine on cuisine from around the world, play global games like Rugby and Bocce, enjoy the children's workshops and International passport, shop in the International Marketplace, sip and learn at the International wine tasting tent, and enjoy dance and musical offerings representing our global diversity.
Free for kids 4 and under.
Parking is available at the northwest corner of the Dallas Parkway and Arapaho Road. A DART transit center is adjacent to the park.
