World’s Fair Anniversary Festival

We’re celebrating the 50th and 75th anniversaries of the NYC World’s Fair with a full day of free activities for all.

Interested in revisiting the 1939-40 and 1964-65 Fairs? We’ll be leading tours of historic sites that are still in Flushing Meadows Corona Park, and displaying exhibits of memorabilia.

Kid-friendly events include 50-cent rides on the historic carousel, puppet shows and face painting.

Enjoy cultural music and dance performances throughout the day. Different foods from around the world will be available, including Belgian waffles, which were introduced to the US at the 1964 World’s Fair.
