HOLLAND, MI (WHTC-AM/FM, Sept. 13, 2024) – It’s among the newest of annual traditions in Holland, but the International Festival of Holland has grown deep roots already.

The fifth annual celebration of the various cultures living and working along the Lakeshore is set for Saturday from 2-7 PM at the Heeringa Holland Civic Center Place. Performing artists will be on the main stage, while there will be an international food court, a children’s Fiesta, a parade of flags, a Mercado, and a rededication of The Immigrants statue a short distance away at Kollen Park.

Esther Fifelski of the city’s Human Relations/International Relations department is one of the event’s organizers.

It’s more than just that, according to City Manager Keith Van Beek.
