With nearly 120 nationalities, Sion is a city with undeniable multicultural facets. Since 2006, the Association des Rencontres d'ici et d'ailleurs (REDIDA) has been formed to promote this diversity, particularly through the involvement of migrants. The actions organized by REDIDA keep a small scale favoring the meeting and the discovery of the foreign communities of Zion and surroundings and the exchange between populations of all origins.
Meetings from here and elsewhere, held every two years, will take place this year from August 20th to 25th. On the program: Conference, exhibition, children's workshops, concerts and dances, procession with traditional costumes and cooking stands.
During the week-end in the open air, some twenty communities will participate in this festival full of colors and flavors. They will make you discover their cuisines, their music and their traditions.
