Diversitat Pako Festa is the largest free celebration of cultural diversity in Australia!

Every year since 1983 Pako Festa has gathered together thousands of people from Geelong’s local and cultural communities, professional performers, community groups, schools, businesses, street traders and artists from all walks of life for one huge, amazing street party to celebrate our multicultural community.

“Reflections of Culture” is theme for 2018.
In 2017 over 100,000 people came together in harmony to enjoy the smorgasbord of fabulous cultural food, traditional dancing, live music, the enormous, famous Pako Street Parade, great workshops, art exhibitions, craft displays, free children’s activities and an exciting program of non-stop free entertainment all day long.
