In Greater Vancouver which touts itself as multicultural,
most fairs/festivals focus on one community or region, or interest/group e.g. CelticFest,
TaiwanFest, Greek Day, Caribbean Days Festival or Vancouver Writers
International Festival to name a few. So
it was quite a revelation to see people from all immigrant groups and locals
and natives mix together at the annual Surrey Fusion Festival, July 19 and 20, 2014.
In fact, Surrey’s Fusion Festival was named the “Best
Festival” at the annual Special Event Magazine Gala Awards competition on
January 10, 2014 in Nashville,
Tennessee. The award recognizes
the world’s top special events.
