Description:
The Council of International Student Organizations in association with Cranwell International Center present the 61st Annual International Street Fair outside on Alumni Mall on the campus of Virginia Tech on Sunday, April 24, 2022.

The International Street Fair is a social event where international and cultural student groups at Virginia Tech celebrate and share their traditions and heritage with the community of Blacksburg and the New River Valley.

Learn about customs and traditions from International Students here at Virginia Tech while you watch skillful dancers transport you to countries with music and beautiful traditional wear. There will be interactive presentations from international groups, traditional games, arts, crafts, and other items available for purchase from the students. Be sure to come hungry and taste the delicious food provided by an assortment of international food trucks that will be on site. Come on out and help us to make this the best street fair yet!
