Palestinian Festival Ottawa

The Palestinian Festival - Ottawa, the only Palestinian festival in Canada, was created
to recognize and celebrate the history, existence, integration, and contributions of the
Palestinian people within Canada and Canadian society. It is also about building community connections, making friendships, building bridges and providing opportunities among the Palestinian people.

The festival showcases traditional Palestinian live performances, music, a glimpse into
Palestinian history, a taste of its food and an impressive bazaar experience. Most importantly, the festival allows Canadian-Palestinians to share their culture with other Canadians. The festival is full of activities for all ages and interests. Our volunteers come from a diverse group of community members. Admittance to the festival is free as the organizers believe in inclusivity so that everyone can enjoy the festival and take part in all of its fun activities.
