The World A'fair - 30 Countries of Food, Drink, Dance and Fun!

Do you somehow not know anything about one of the best festivals in town?

The World A'fair is this weekend at the Dayton Convention Center, over 30 countries are represented with food, drink, music and dance!

Come on down and hoist a few pints in Ireland!  If you really like beer join in on the  VERY popular Beer Passport which is held Friday evening only,  The purchase of the Beer Passport  entitles you to a 2-oz. sample of beer from each of the twelve participating booths.  Please make sure you vote for Ireland at the end of your tour.

The theme for this year's festival is "Celebrating Festivals"  Ireland will be replicating the Matchmaker Festival  The Lisdoonvarna Matchmaking Festival is a month long festival of music, dancing and craic (pronounced crack - Irish for fun!)

Our booth will have live music, storytelling, jokes, limericks and dancing.  There is even going to be a speed dating event - in honor of the Matchmaker festival held in Ireland. Maybe you will find the LOVE of your LIFE this weekend!

The McGovern Ceili Dancers will be dancing all weekend and you can find out more about their Irish dance program, events, performances and even how to sign up for lessons at www.mcgoverndance.org
