We’re thrilled to invite the entire international community in Fayetteville and Cumberland County to join us for the BEST parade of the year—the Parade of Nations!
This incredible event is one of the highlights of our International Folk Festival and shines a spotlight on the rich cultural heritage and diversity that make our community so unique. With over 30+ nations represented, this is your chance to either join an existing country group marching in the parade or start your own to proudly showcase your heritage and nationality!
