Roughly 2,000 people took advantage of the great weather on Saturday to enjoy Huron County's fifth Annual Multicultural Festival on the Courthouse Park in Goderich.

Co-ordinator Amy Zoethout explains the goal of the festival is to celebrate the cultural diversity in Huron County and the theme for this year's festival was Asia.

"We've got Korean Folk Dance, Japanese drumming, Chinese Lion Dancers, Bollywood dancers and music from the Middle East," says Zoethout.

The festival wrapped around 8pm Saturday night.
