West Franklin Street will exhibit a variety of local arts, crafts and entertainment for everyone in the community. The festivities start at 1 p.m. and last until 6 p.m.
Parrish Anderson, public events coordinator for Chapel Hill Parks and Recreation, described the event as a showcase of local talents and creativity.
"So many different people, of different cultures, faces and lives come together to experience their community," Anderson said. "It's a very special thing."
Wes Tilghman, arts and special events coordinator, planned Sunday's entertainment. He said three entertainment venues will provide the audience with local inspiration and popular music, with kids' zone performances for children's amusement. The "In the Park" stage will demonstrate eclectic entertainment, including martial arts and belly dancing.
"Festifall is a community celebration," Tilghman said. "It creates a unity and solidarity within the community, and we are proud to serve the community in this way."
Local artists and craftsmen will feature a mixture of pottery, paintings, photography, jewelry, candles, toys, woodworks, fabrics and clothing.
In the kids' zone, children can enjoy face-painters from Disney World, temporary tattoos and a climbing wall located near the McDonald's at 409 W. Franklin St.
Deviating from typical street fair food, Festifall will bring something unusual to West Franklin Street. Food accounts for a major part of the day, bringing a plethora of international food that Anderson said many "don't normally have at the dinner table."
Colombian, Thai, Caribbean, Chinese, and for the first time, vegan and vegetarian food will be available from vendors, giving the crowd an opportunity to try a range of different foods.
