For nearly seven decades, the World Unity Fair at Colorado State University has been a cherished cultural extravaganza, inviting the community to embark on a journey around the world in just a few hours.  

This year’s event boasts worldwide cuisine, captivating stage performances and a vibrant international bazaar. 

The Office of International Programs will host the 68th annual fair on Saturday, Feb. 17, from 5 p.m. to 9 p.m. in the Lory Student Center Grand Ballrooms.  

The World Unity Fair allows both students and local groups the opportunity to showcase elements of their cultures in ways most meaningful to them.

Through displays, photos, music, dance, clothing and food, the fair will provide a lens into the multitude of countries and cultures represented.  

Students, staff, faculty and community members of all ages are all welcome at this free, public event. While there’s no admission cost, international snacks and beverages will be available for purchase at the event.

Free parking near the LSC on Saturdays makes it convenient for everyone to join in the festivities. 

This event is presented by the Office of International Programs and is co-sponsored by the Associated Students of Colorado State University, Council of International Student Affairs and the Fort Collins International Center.
