There's a lot to do on the Cape this weekend in addition to enjoying the beautiful weather that is predicted.  In addition to the St. Patrick's Day festivities and parade, there's the Multicultural Festival at Cape Cod Community College.  Below  is a description of the 10th annual festival from Cape Events.

Over 40 different displays, demonstrations, and performers, plus outstanding cuisine from around the world await attendees at this year’s 10th Annual Multicultural Festival of Cape Cod on the West Barnstable campus of Cape Cod Community College Saturday, March 6, 2010 from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. This event is produced free every year showcasing the histories, lifestyles, and cultures of the people from around the world who call Cape Cod their home today.


Well over 100 volunteers staff information tables, offer unique goods for sale, and entertain throughout the day, with all activities at no charge. Both stages of the Tilden Arts Center will be filled with performers; dancers, singers, instrumentalists from the widest possible traditions including the Caribbean, England, Scotland, Bavaria, Africa, West Africa, Guinea, Spain, Egypt, Iran, Haiti, Peru, the African-American experience, and what was once known as the Arabian provinces. In addition, Native American storytelling, drumming, singing, and dance, presented by members of the Wampanoag Tribe of Mashpee, will be featured throughout the day.

Special activities for children are an important part of the festival. Face painting plus children’s storytelling, and a “Passport” for young people to use to visit countries during their “around the world” travels

Come to the Cape and enjoy our manager's special of $59.99 per night.  The weather is supposed to be sunny and in the high 40's...a hint of spring.
