These superstars have journeyed all the way from Cairo to share their artistry and connect with fans at the square,” noted Magdy Nashaat, Chairman of CEHA’s Board of Directors.

“No matter where you come from, how old you are, or what kind of food you crave, you’ll find it all and enjoy it all at this year’s Largest Egyptian Festival at the Celebration Square,” remarked Sheref Sabawy, MPP Mississauga-Erin Mills. “This festival is an extension of the fifth Egyptian Heritage Month celebration, which happens every July, after being designated and recognized by the government of Ontario”.
