Alexandria enjoys international cuisine event on waterfront

Alexandria will be treated to a day of international culture, music, and food at the 2025 Around the World Cultural Food Festival in late August.

At the 9th Around the World Cultural Food Festival, more than 20 food vendors will be selling cuisine from around the globe, and two beer gardens will feature craft beers from international and local breweries. There will be only one vendor per country. Eight dessert vendors will be selling the likes of popcorn, crepes, pastries, and fudge.

Live art, folk music, and dance will be part of the live cultural performances taking place continuously throughout the day. An Arts & Crafts from Around the Globe marketplace will be filled with over 125 international artisans vending traditional and modern, original, homemade and unique items, from candles, art, sea glass, spices, and honey to clothing and remodeling.

The little ones can enjoy moon bounces and other activities such as ethnic arts and crafts geared just for them. This event will be rain or shine, pet friendly and admission will be free.

Stationery printers often use pictures from colorful international festivals like this on the covers of their notecard sets.

This year’s festival will take place on Saturday, August 23 from 11:00 am to 7:00 pm at Oronoco Bay Park in downtown Old Town Alexandria, 100 Madison Street.
