What if you could travel across continents, taste street food from dozens of cultures, and watch performers from every corner of the globe all in a single day?
Welcome to World Fair US, a one-of-a-kind festival bringing together the sights, sounds, and flavors of over 80 countries in one unforgettable summer celebration. From July 7th to 28th, SeatGeek Stadium in Bridgeview, Illinois, will be transformed into a global village with six distinct pavilions: Asia, Africa, the Middle East, Europe, North America, and South America.
Each pavilion offers a window into the daily life, traditions, and creativity of its region. With food stalls serving authentic dishes, artisans showcasing handmade crafts, and stages alive with music, dance, and storytelling, this is more than a cultural showcase – it’s a family-friendly adventure designed to spark curiosity, connection, and delight.

Across the festival, live performances bring each pavilion to life. Every region will feature its own stage showcasing traditional and modern acts. At the center of it all, the Main Stage will spotlight global performers, special collaborations, and crowd-favorite experiences you won’t want to miss.
