For the first time in its history, a “Chinese Festival Day” will be held at Waterloo Town Square on August 18, 2018 to share the unique and vibrant Chinese culture experiences with members from all communities. This festival will be an event to promote wellness living through engaging all of its visitors to participate in visual and performing arts, craft lessons, hands-on cooking, fun games and more.

Supported by the City of Waterloo and United Way Waterloo Region Communities through the City of Waterloo Neighbourhood Matching Fund, this historic event is organized by WCCA (Waterloo Region Chinese Community Association). WCCA is an Ontario-registered non-profit organization with missions to connect and enhance the contributions of the Chinese Canadian community to the larger society.
