Travel around the world at this one event!

Long a hub of investment from businesses all over the globe, Spartanburg is truly an international city, with residents from more than 75 countries and more than 100 international businesses. To celebrate Spartanburg's global appeal and its corresponding diversity the City of Spartanburg hosted its first International Festival in 1985.

Today that festival has grown to become one of our city's most popular, with more than 12,000 people attending annually to celebrate and explore world cultures through food, music, dance, folk art, and much more.

This year's featured country is Paraguay! Paraguay is lovingly known as the "Heart of South America" and is one of two landlocked South American countries. Paraguay is also a bilingual nation with Guaraní and Spanish as the official languages. Guaraní is an indigenous language and is one of the few native languages in South America that is still spoken today.
