About Unity Festival

The Northland Unity Festival is our annual celebration of everything that makes Northland home, its cultures, its people, and its community.

Spend the afternoon with live performances, food from local vendors, community exhibitors, and neighbors from across the area.

This year we’re bringing the festival home to the North YMCA, with more space and more visibility for the businesses and families at the heart of Northland.

Be part of the festival.
