In 1991 several local Italian Clubs in the Portland area decided to form Festa Italiana.  The Festa was created to celebrate Italian American culture.  Thousands of people have attended the 3 day Festa each year, enjoying Food from local Italian restaurants, Music from Italy and the USA. We also have a Opera by Portland State University Opera. 

Over the years we have started off a Festa Week with a Mass in Italian, Bocce Tournament, Italian Film night all leading up to the Festa which was held (previously) in Pioneer Courthouse Square.  Children have enjoyed bocce, a marionette show, face painting and Pizza Toss.  We have also had several contests including a Cannoli  Eating Contest and Grape Stomp. 

This year after a few years off we are bringing back the Festa for a 1 day event in beautiful Cedarville Park.  Next year we are planning our 30th celebration.
