Ethnic Marketplace

The newest addition to Erie's Heritage Festival, the Ethnic Marketplace celebrates our community's diversity through food, dance, music and crafts. The Marketplace features several large tents filled with artisans and traditional foods, while the World Stage offers local cultural groups the opportunity to demonstrate dance, music, traditional costume and more. Be sure to bring an appetite and a world traveler's sense of adventure!
