The Around the World Cultural Food festival is coming back in 2021 at a new venue – the beautiful, waterfront park – Oronoco Bay Park, downtown Old Town Alexandria, VA. The event is admission free, with plenty of national dishes and beverages available for purchase. A national dish is any country’s culinary, and to a large extent, cultural identity. There will be a full day schedule of traditional dances on the stage. Ethnic arts & crafts, small businesses and non-profit organizations will also be present at the festival.
