Fiesta Broadway means four blocks of Downtown LA packed with "mariachi" music, folk dances, bright costumes, delectable Mexican cuisine, and mindblowing Latin superstars' performances. The latest headliners on the bill showcased Selena, Celia Cruz, Tito Puente, Marc Anthony, and other icons of music. The festive menu offers salsa, guacamole, empanadas, enchiladas, tamales, burritos, fajitas, and other staples. Lastly, you must remember that Fiesta Broadway is a family-friendly occasion, jammed with cultural vendors, sports acritivites, games, kid's play area, and diverse entertainment alike.
The first edition of Fiesta Broadway dates back to 1990. Since then, this feast for eyes, ears, and palate has kept growing and winning more and more hearts. So, book your stay in LA and venture to discover the festival's multiple concert stages and booths and make lifelong memories.
