New York Latin Festivals

There are NYC Festivals for just about everything under the sun. Both New York City and Latin are a mix of all the world’s peoples, so we have lots to celebrate.

Christmas and Carnival are the world’s most popular Latin festivals. Both have Italian origins, but evolved into something unique in the Americas.

Festivals are important community events in traditional cultures. Many festivals have a religious origin. All religions seek to make sense of the miracle of life that we all share. We are often taught to see our differences, when in fact our similarities are far more striking. Religious tolerance is an essential part of being a New Yorker.

We don’t represent any religion

We write about faith in the hope that sharing traditions leads to the discovery of our common humanity. Whatever way makes sense to you, may you and your family be blessed.

Latin Festivals in NYC

Our concept of Latin includes Latin America, Latin Europe, Mother Africa, and Latin Asia.
