WORLDFEST 2021

Worldfest Day 2020

Thank you to everyone who joined us online to celebrate WorldFest 2020 virtually. We premiered never before seen footage from select 2019 performances. We held a virtual opening ceremony, debuted online workshops, and aired new performances from the Global Indigenous Peoples Village. You can watch them all on Facebook or tune in to the WorldFest YouTube channel.

Music connects us all.

California WorldFest acknowledges the racial injustice of the past and present. We are committed to listening to BBIPOC voices and educating ourselves as we work together towards a future built on equality. We believe the arts foster unity and will continue to advocate for BBIPOC artists and community members. We see you, we hear you, we support you.
