Mississippi State University’s 34th annual International Fiesta is looking for performers, vendors, and cultural groups to take part in this spring’s celebration. Interested participants are encouraged to attend one of two interest meetings this month: Feb. 16 at 4 p.m. or Feb. 20 at 11:30 a.m. in Old Main Academic Center, Room 1030, 560 Barr Ave. Attendance is required for anyone planning to perform or host a booth.

“Each year the Fiesta fills the university Drill Field with people from all around the globe sharing their cultures through entertaining performances, international cuisine, and crafts,” said Kylie Forrester, director of MSU’s Center for Student Activities. “It’s a wonderful way to celebrate diversity and learn something new about people and countries around the world.”

The International Fiesta, set for April 11 at 11 a.m., has grown into one of MSU’s largest events, attracting hundreds of students, staff and visitors from across the region. Along with the Center for Student Activities, the World Neighbors Association of Starkville co-hosts the annual celebration.

Those interested in sponsoring or learning more about the Fiesta can email Karolina Kastsiuchenka, program coordinator in the Center for Student Activities, at [email protected] or Forrester at [email protected].
