THIS WEEKEND | Festival Latino

After humble beginnings as a five-hour pilot project by the City of Columbus in 1996, Festival Latino has become the largest Latin event in Ohio, offering a free, family-friendly celebration of family, community, and Latin American culture. Success in recent years has prompted an expansion in 2013. To be held Saturday and Sunday, August 10 and 11, the new footprint will include its original location in Genoa Park but will also stretch across the Rich Street bridge into Bicentennial Park.

Festival Latino 2013 will be headlined by Duranguense queen Diana Reyes on Saturday night and international salsa master Ruben Blades on Sunday night. Blades is making his Columbus debut.
