Festival Beverly Hills will take place on July 21 in a new venue, Beverly Gardens Park. Presented in collaboration with the city’s Community Services Department and Arts and Culture Commission, the Farhang Foundation and the Consulates of Brazil, Colombia, El Salvador, Senegal and Tobago and Trinidad, this year’s Festival Beverly Hills will showcase more than 13 diverse cultures. The lineup will include dance and musical performances, storytelling with puppetry and poetry, interactive cultural arts and crafts activities, Japanese tea ceremonies, a curated record and book pop-up offering global music and literary works. Food trucks will be on hand serving culinary selections from around the world.
“Following the successful launch of Festival Beverly Hills last year at the Farmers’ Market, we are looking forward to being able to accommodate even more participants and community members by moving it to our iconic Beverly Gardens Parks,” said Beverly Hills Mayor Lester Friedman. “It’s imperative we continue to be a city that celebrates all cultures across the globe through immersive presentations, dance, food and more.”
