Overview

Ah, the annual festival of all things Italian — just when I thought I was out, they dragged me back in. This Sunday, October 30 marks the day of celebration for the nation that brought us Julius Caesar, Nebbiolo and Dario Argento. This year's incarnation of the street fair is a special one though, as it's celebrating 30 years of the iconic exultation of Mediterranean multiculturalism.

Something fresh in the mix this year is the addition of the Canterbury and District Soccer Football Club, who will be on hand with interactive clinics and demonstrations on the art of the world game. As per usual though, Norton Street will be lined with food vendors from somebody's nonna to professional culinary wizards. There'll be entertainment, beverages, fashion, and the Auto Festa for big kids, with as many Ferraris and Lambos as you can shake a cannoli at.
