Bring Latin American Culture to Life Across the CCMIL Region
Last year, more than 7,000 people attended La Fiesta Festival, and this year we want visitors to continue experiencing the vibrant flavours, music, arts, entertainment and culture of Latin America before and after the festival.
If you are a business, community group, venue or organisation located within the CCMIL Collection Zone, we invite you to create a Latin American-themed event between 30 October – 15 November and become part of the La Fiesta Fringe Program.
The event was granted a Special Event Declaration under the Liquor Act 2017 for Saturday, 7 November 2026, permitting licensed trading hours to be extended until 2:00 am on Sunday, 8 November 2026.
Create an ATDW event listing, submit your details below, and we'll help promote your event to people interested in attending La Fiesta Festival.
Important: La Fiesta Fringe activities are independently organised events and are not part of the official La Fiesta Festival program.
