Pakington Street in West Geelong is one of our most cosmopolitan strips, and in February it is home to the Matchworks Pako Festa.

A rich mix of cultural and art combine into a wonderful weekend of food, music, art and entertainment.

One of the highlights is the Pako Festa Street Parade which attracts thousands of spectators.  Here dozens of groups from all corners of the globe parade down Pakington Street in their national dress or special costumes.
