Get ready for colour, sound, sights, action, food, dancing and fun throughout Blundstone Arena when World Games Day unfolds on Sunday 24 May.
World Games Day is a family friendly event that provides an opportunity for cross cultural sharing, celebration and connection for the whole community.
The oval will host a range of ‘come and try’ activities, a performance area, and a soccer tournament.
In a first for our own international sporting venue, 10 soccer teams will vie for the Community World Cup trophy as they converge on two half pitches in a series of short, sharp games.
There will be a lot more to entertain with exhibits and dance performances from around the world including the Bhangra and Bollywood Dancers, Samurai Ninja Martial Arts, latin dancers Casa Cubano and Tango Milonguero.
Whilst there’s plenty to watch, there is also plenty to do and it’s a great chance to walk on to the field which has hosted international cricket and AFL.
Try your hand at a range of games from netball to nalakatook, or hunka house to cricket.
An international food court in the new concourse will serve up tastes of the world and a range of music will add to the atmosphere.
World Games Day links with the World Day for Cultural Diversity for Dialogue and Development that is held each year on 21 May and is presented by Clarence City Council.
Yes, it’s free!
