International Festival Of Life
DESCRIPTION
In 1993:
Ephraim Martin established the African/Caribbean International Festival of Life (IFOL) in Chicago, Illinois.
The IFOL attracts an average 50,000 patrons per year, with more than 200 exhibitors/vendors and some 70 performing acts on three stages.
The International Festival of Life- Carnival of Nations now incorporated countries of the Caribbean, Africa, South, and Central America, alone with Mexico to showcase and promote their lifestyle and heritage. Jamaica and its reggae music remain the driving force. Entertainers from various African, Caribbean, Hispanic/Latin American territories play a vital role in making this IFOL Carnival of Nations live up to its objectives of “Bring nations Together” and “Living Together As One”.
“It’s said that no person alive (from the biggest Hollywood producer to the smallest or underground producer has consecutively produced 100 annual special events in total; but Ephraim Martin will change that this year and create entertainment history.
Currently with 97 once per year special events under his belt, Ephraim’s 35th Anniversary of the Chicago Music Awards and 25th International Festival of Life, July 1st thru 4th, in Chicago will be his 98 and 99; then at the conclusion of the 35th Anniversary of the International Reggae and World Music Awards (IRAWMA), October 2nd in Fort Lauderdale, Florida will be his 100th annual special event which will certainly set a world record.
Martin’s International offers opportunities for a variety of vendors during 2021 3-day 4th of July weekend multi-cultural event, July 2 – 4, 2021.
The 28th International Festival of Life will be held during the Independence Day weekend from Friday thru Sunday, July 2 – 4, 2021, at Washington Park, Chicago, or another location in Chicago in the event of an emergency.
