Soin International and Dayton International Festival, Inc. present the 40th annual International Festival, A World A’Fair — Global Pastimes. The festival is a celebration of diversity that showcases the food, dancing, music, costumes, and cultural exhibits  representing the ethnic backgrounds and cultures of Dayton and the greater Miami Valley.

A very popular way of celebrating our cultural diversity has always been to sample the many varieties of food and drink offered by the participating organizations.  For a list of foods and merchandise on sale at the booths see the Food and Merchandise listing.

For a complete listing of the ethnic organizations represented at this year’s festival, see the Organizations page, where you’ll also find information about the organizations and their booths, along with photos from previous years’ festivals.
