New Falls festival promises costumes, colour and culture

    From the Niagara Falls Review:

    Tango dancing, exotic foods and cultural entertainment will hit the Niagara Parkway in a new festival hosted by the Niagara Parks Commission.

    The first Celebrate Cultures event will be held from the Maid of the Mist centre near the bottom of Clifton Hill up to Table Rock House in front of the falls, during the first three weeks of September.

    “It’s a time when it’s less busy, so it allows us to really put on more of a demonstration for these cultures without it being lost in the maze of people,” said Parks chairman Jim Williams. “Niagara Falls is such a well-known tourist destination worldwide, celebrating international cultures that are prominent in the park is something that is long overdue for us.”

    The parks commission is hoping to make the festival an annual event.
