Culture Days

Culture Days is an annual national celebration that has become one of the Country's largest participatory cultural events. Each year, millions of people participate in arts and cultural events across the Country.

Participants join in a three week long series of incredible free, or pay-what-you-may, activities and performances hosted by artists, cultural organizations and the City. This event gives behind-the-scenes access to local arts, culture and heritage.

The City participates each year as a local organizer of Culture Days events. There's something for everyone!

In 2026, Culture Days will run from September 18th - October 4th.

Visit our Arts & Culture Under the Lights page to learn more about our free to attend launch event that kicks off Culture Days. This event features an evening of dance and musical performances, artisans, displays, and activities that celebrated the rich culture of our city!

Check out our Culture Days Hub Profile to see all of our great events from 2025!
