Are you ready, Aurora? Global Fest 2025 is almost here, and you're invited to join us for this festive, fun and free celebration of our city's amazing diversity. There'll be all kinds of food and entertainment from around the world, an International Marketplace and even a Selena tribute performance and look-a-like contest. AuroraTV gives you a preview and all the details. Also on this week's show, for the first time in decades, the Aurora Police K9 Unit is fully staffed. We'll give you a behind-the-scenes look at how they help keep our city safe. Plus, our Mission Viejo Library marks a major milestone, and The Constant Tourists perform in studio to give us a taste of the next Aurora Rhythms live music series. Those stories and many more this week on Aurora Now.
