The event is free and open to all from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m.
University clubs, departments and organizations also will have booths, and highlights of the day will include inflatables, musical performances and a fashion show.
“The International Fiesta also provides opportunities to interact with people of different nationalities and backgrounds to develop a broader understanding of various cultures and today’s globalizing world,” said Kei Mamiya, program coordinator for the Holmes Cultural Diversity Center.
