The Festival of Nations is held in Tower Grove park in St. Louis, Missouri and has been an annual event since 1920. “Even though I always heard about how cool and vibrant the Festival of Nations was, I never made time to go until this year,” Roberts said. “It was so much fun and I was able to watch my friend Kristina perform with her church dance-group and eat a variety of different foods. I definitely plan on going again next year.”
