The 2024 International Festival will be September 21, 2024 from 10 am to 6 pm (see event schedule tab for more details). We hope to see many cultural representatives for many different countries. Please direct any questions to: globaleducation@charlotte.edu.
We are happy to announce that this year the International Festival will be a part of the Charlotte International Arts Festival as a cultural partner!
The International Festival is held on the UNC Charlotte campus in and around the Barnhardt Student Activity Center (SAC). See the “Directions and Parking” tab for more information.
The International Festival is centered around booths arranged in colorful marketplace style representing the cultures of over 35 nations. The booths are staffed by UNC Charlotte international students and members of Charlotte’s international community and feature art, crafts and costumes from each participating country. Many booths offer international food for sale. Festival entry and parking are FREE! The International Festival is open to the public.
