The main stage
The Moore Park Amphitheater

From opening ceremony to the last act, the stage hosts music, dance and special presentations from cultures across the globe. Pull up a seat in the amphitheater and stay a while.

How performers are chosen: performance times are not first come, first served. Once sign-ups are in, our entertainment team reviews every request and builds a program that mixes cultures and styles (songs, dances and special presentations) from start to finish. Sending a request doesn't guarantee a spot or a specific time; if you're selected, we'll email you your time. Short acts, even five minutes, are welcome, and we do our best to work around performers who are only available at certain times.
