The International Institute of St. Louis Organized the International May Festival in St. Louis in 1920. Approximately 2,000 people attended the May Festival. The May Festival was one of the earliest multicultural celebrations in the US and today's Festival of Nations originated from the May Festival. No festivals were held in 1942–45, nor what would've been their centennial anniversary in 2020. IISTL
