The festival will feature a variety of international dishes, prepared by Sodexo, using recipes submitted by Embry-Riddle's international student community. Attendees will receive a "Passport" that allows them to sample different cuisines from around the world. This culinary experience aims to bring the world to Prescott, Arizona, where Embry-Riddle is located.
In addition to the food, the International Festival will showcase various activities and learning exercises. Student organizations will display traditional clothing from their respective countries, providing guests with a visual representation of different cultures. Live music and entertainment will also be part of the festivities, creating a vibrant and immersive experience.
Embry-Riddle's Prescott Campus is proud to host 278 international students from 54 countries. The International Festival serves as a platform for these students to share their cultures and traditions with the broader community. It is an opportunity for students, faculty, and the Prescott community to come together and learn about different cultures in a festive and inclusive environment.
The event will take place at Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University, located at 3700 Willow Creek Road in Prescott. Signs will be posted around campus to guide visitors to the designated parking area at the Activity Center. Admission to the festival is free, but donations will be accepted to support Embry-Riddle's International Student Fund, which provides resources and assistance to international students.
