Unity and Diversity Festival

A Unity and Diversity Festival will be held at Heritage Square Park in downtown Walla Walla on Sunday, April 27, 2025 presented by the Walla Walla Diversity Coalition. The festival theme is “We’re all in this together?Come celebrate our Diversity and Unity.” The event will formally open at noon with a variety of food vendors, crafts, games, information booths, music and dance performances, and more. This year’s festival revives a 25 year tradition of the Diversity Coalition’s multicultural arts festivals. The annual festival drew thousands of people each year and for many became their favorite community event. It drew a mix of people from a variety of ethnic, racial, religious and other backgrounds. The event featured booths and performances from many different traditions, was cosponsored by the City of Walla Walla and other organizations, and was included in the City’s official vision statement set out in its comprehensive plan as characteristic of our community’s future. For past events, the City, County, and neighboring communities officially proclaimed the day of the festival Diversity Day, and this year the Coalition is requesting that they declare April 27 Unity and Diversity Day in the Walla Walla Valley.
