Leírás: Fiesta Mundial is a world party in the true sense of the word. Long time ago a young man and woman wanted to organize a cultural event to raise money for development of projects in the South, and to show the different cultural parts in a gathering. It is a music festival, which takes place in a recreation park, including screenings of world cinema, music performances with authentic and popular ethnic music, as well as street animation, lots of workshops and a multicultural market. Fiesta Mundial only works with volunteers. We would like to carry out the spirit and atmosphere of multiculturalism of the festival even during the build-up. Apart from the workcamp volunteers, also people of local minority groups will be involved in the work. Check out the website: http://fiestamundial.be/
