The Forest City is putting out the welcome mat for visitors from around the world.

Many will be learning about "Canada's London" for the first time during the World Figure Skating Championships.

Several First Nations groups gathered at Museum London to officially welcome visitors Sunday.

Food, culture and aboriginal history were all on display.

"I think this is an appropriate time to remind people that we are here," said Chief Greg Peters of the Moraviantown First Nation.

Native performers will also be part of Tuesday's opening ceremonies.
