Five Summer Latinx Musical Festivals To Show Up At

It’s no Summer, if you don’t head out to enjoy a music festival event! Live music, dancing, cerveza or a michelada and if it’s an outdoor event – grub to street meat, elotes or fruta on-a-stick, and you are set!

Latinx pride, resilience and persistence of cultural preservation only gets stronger as we rise in the face of attacks to our communities. One way to do that – is through celebrations of one’s own culture!

Here is a list of our favorite Latinx celebrations coast-to-cast this Summer –

Latin Alternative Music Festival-New York

Latinx who edge toward alternative music styles can enjoy some of the offsite events held by LAMF, the biggest event for cutting-edge Latin music held in New York City, July 9 – 13th.
