Help Our Ethnic Parade & Festival

The Midtown Ethnic Parade & Festival is put on by 20 of the over 50 Ethnic Groups that exist in the Rockford, Illinois Region. This event has been a labor of heart, inviting people to come and celebrate our area’s diversity.


I am the coordinator of this event and we need your help to keep this festival going. Along with our Illinois state budget woes, increased permitting and rental prices, and lack of funding available in these hard times, we want to make sure we can keep this going—for this year, and beyond, especially in lieu of how immigrants are being treated in our country.



This festival means a great deal to us and to our community. This is our 4th year-it has brought people together, and we have put so much into it; even from our own pockets and labors. It has been a great experience meeting and becoming family with all these diverse people. There is no Political, Commercial, or Religious Prosletizing allowed In this event; this is to keep it a true celebration which is not hindered by differences or profit.



All of these raised funds will go to ensure we can continue to host this event. We think it is important-if you do too, please help us! <3
