Get ready to party at one of the Triad’s largest cultural festivals. The Hispanic League will celebrate its 32nd annual FIESTA! in downtown Winston-Salem Saturday, Sept. 14 with electrifying cultural presentations and colorful dance performances.
Attend a special performance by two-time Grammy winner Marlow Rosado, take part in arts and crafts activities, and shop food from Latin America during the free event. Get lost in the crowd from 11 a.m. to 7 p.m. between Poplar and Marshall streets. This event makes the start of a month-long Hispanic Heritage Month.
Why is September significant?
National Hispanic Heritage Month goes from Sept. 15-Oct. 15. The month celebrates the contributions Hispanic ancestors from Spain, Mexico, the Caribbean, and Central and South America made to the United States.
