WHEELING, Ill. — No passport required! The Wheeling Park District is bringing the world to The Heritage Park Performance Pavilion for an afternoon filled with international music, cuisine, dance and cultural experiences. All are invited to experience an unforgettable celebration filled with family fun at the annual International Festival on Sunday, August 9, from 1-7 p.m. at Heritage Park Performance Pavilion, 201 Community Blvd., Wheeling, Illinois. This free community event transforms the Heritage Park Performance Pavilion into a global celebration, where guests can discover traditions from around the world through live entertainment, authentic local cuisine, and interactive cultural exhibits from community organizations all in one afternoon. "The Wheeling International Festival reflects the incredible diversity that makes Wheeling such a welcoming community," said Matt Wehby, Executive Director of the Wheeling Park District. "It's a day where our guests can discover new cultures, celebrate shared traditions and create memories at one of our most anticipated events of the year." The first 200 young explorers to arrive can embark on their own global adventure with a Travel Around the World Passport activity.

It is a fun and interactive way to inspire curiosity while celebrating the many cultures that represent Wheeling’s diversity. As one of the Wheeling Park District's signature events, the International Festival brings over three-thousand community members together each year to celebrate the diversity, traditions and connections that make Wheeling a truly special place to live.
