Festival LatinoAmericano will take over Arlington Mill Community Center in Arlington, Virginia, this Saturday, October 3, bringing an evening of music, food, culture and community, Arlington County Parks & Recreation said.
Festivities will take place indoors from 5–8 p.m. and outdoors from 5–9 p.m. Admission is free, and while RSVP is not required, organizers said it helps them plan for the evening.
The lineup includes live music and dance performances, a Cultural Fashion Show and a Flag Celebration, along with food vendors and artisan and community vendors inside and outside the community center. A full event schedule is available online so attendees can plan around performances and activities.
The festival is happening rain or shine. If rain impacts the event, all festival activities and programming will move inside Arlington Mill Community Center so the celebration can continue. Organizers said event-day updates and any weather-related changes will be shared by email and on social media.
Arlington Mill Community Center is located at 909 S. Dinwiddie St., Arlington, VA. Free parking is available in the community center garage, but spaces are limited and may fill quickly during the festival. Attendees are encouraged to arrive by public transportation, rideshare, bike or on foot when possible, and to allow extra time. Event parking is not permitted at Columbia Pike Plaza, where parking is reserved for shopping center customers only.
