International Week
International Week at Western is held annually in November as a campus-wide celebration of all things international, and is open to all students, faculty, staff, and the public.
The Don Wright Faculty of Music participates in International Week through our Songs of Many Lands concert, featuring music from across the globe, performed by our students.
Visit Western’s International Week platform on Socio to log in and participate in our virtual events. You only have to sign in once for the week to be able to view our virtual booths, participate in Q&A sessions, enter our Passport Contest for a chance to win prizes, and more!
