The 1964 World’s Fair was hosted in Flushing Meadows-Corona Park and was themed
“Peace Through Understanding.” Millions of visitors attended the fair to explore the
countries that were represented from around the world.

The event is expected to draw 10,000 people who can celebrate the diversity of New York
City by experiencing the most broad selection of international cuisine, beer, music, dance

The second annual World’s Fare has a fantastic team of the City’s leading culinary voices
that have curated the diverse food offerings. In addition, culinary co-chairs include
