A Reimagined Festival of Nations Returns in 2026; International Festival of Minnesota (IFest-MN)

After a multi-year hiatus, a cherished cultural tradition is coming back with new life, new leadership, and renewed purpose. The International Festival of Minnesota (IFest-MN) will take place April 10–11, 2026 at the Saint Paul RiverCentre, gathering more than 70 nations and ethnic communities to celebrate the vibrant diversity of Minnesota and the world.

Formerly known as the Festival of Nations, IFest-MN marks a bold new chapter as an independent nonprofit organization. With an expected 20,000 attendees, including 7,000 students, the festival will offer immersive experiences in global cuisine, music, dance, artisan crafts, storytelling, and cultural demonstrations. From hands-on activities to dynamic performances, IFest-MN is designed to spark joy, foster understanding, and honor the rich heritage woven into our communities.
