A little excerpt from my the top 5 festivals:
Folklorama gives people a chance to experience different cultures from around the world. This is the only festival of it’s kind in Canada. Each week has a different set of pavilions and each pavilion does 30 to 60 minute “shows” every day of the week, multiple times a day. The shows are made up of singing, dancing and other arts/entertainment that is specific to the culture. Before and after the show you can sample the local cuisine and beverages (alcoholic and non-alcoholic) or pick up some culture related merchandise. Folklorama has something for everyone!
