A World a Fair

A World A’Fair is a 3-day international festival held each May at the Dayton Convention Center, in Dayton Ohio. We presently showcase booths from 35 organizations representing over 50 countries, all of whom are non-profits as the organizers also are. We run two full-time stages with performances from both the local groups as well as regional, national and even international performing groups. But in the background our mission is education. We hope our visitors come away not only well-entertained and well-fed, but also better-educated. This makes us the Dayton Convention Center’s largest event and the largest international festival in Ohio. 2020 will mark our 47th year, which also makes us the 2nd oldest international festival in Ohio, following Columbus .
