For more than 40 years, the International Children's Festival of the Arts has inspired thousands of kids and their grown-ups and provided them with countless awe-inspiring and mind-growing experiences. For decades, the festival has nurtured, inspired and ignited creative expression for our young, global citizens, and worked diligently to promote a higher degree of empathy, confidence, well-being and cultural understanding. At the festival, children will tap into the power of creative expression as they observe world-class artists at the height of their crafts, sing and dance to world music, interact with roving artists, listen to stories of others' experiences, and create their own masterpieces with the help of a multitude of hands-on activities.

In 2025, the festival will once again bring priceless, real-time opportunities to laugh and learn while creating lasting memories that draw families, friends and communities together.

A HUGE thank you for the support and overwhelming generosity of our partners, sponsors and volunteers. We invite you to share in the inspirational explosion of colour, joy and creative expression that is the Children's Festival, because as Rachel Houston said, "When you reduce life to black and white, you never see rainbows."
