Released 22/08/2016
Stallholder and entertainment applications are now open for the biggest party in Canberra – the 2017 National Multicultural Festival.
Next year’s event runs from 17-19 February and in 2017 is celebrating its 21st birthday.
The 2016 Festival attracted approximately 280,000 people over the three days and included some 43,000 visitors from interstate.
It also generated approximately $12 million for the ACT economy, an increase from $7.8 million on 2015.
One of the main reasons for the ongoing success of the Festival is the fantastic range of stallholders and entertainers involved.
Stallholders are able to apply for either a stall as a commercial provider, not-for-profit community organisation or diplomatic mission.
Applications for stalls close on 14 October.
