Cincy-Cinco Latin Festival

For 20 years, Cincy-Cinco has brought the best Latino music, dance, and food to Cincinnati. The celebration continues at Fountain Square for the 20th Aniversario event on May 4th & 5th! This year’s event will be más GRANDE, más DIVERTIDO, y más DELICIOSO than ever. #ilovec5

Cincy-Cinco, the tri-state region’s premier Latino festival, is a family-friendly event that showcases Latino culture, values, and traditions. Supporters from many cultures come to celebrate Hispanic culture and share some Latin American traditions with the community. Food vendors, local dancers, and musicians gather for a fiesta all weekend long!

As in the past, the theme will be from Porkopolis to Tacópolis, featuring authentic Latino food with colorful and delicious flavors, including tacos, empanadas, arepas, and other tasty treats. In addition, restaurants from Brazil, Colombia, Honduras, Mexico, and many more countries will be represented. A dozen local and regional restaurants will participate, including Panaderia Oaxaqueña, My Familia’s Mexican Cuisine, El Cardenal Taqueria, Uai Brazil Sweets & Treats, The Arepa Place, Mis Sabores, Latin Taste Grill, International Foods, and more! Each restaurant will have a signature dish crafted specially for the festival, so try them all.

Entertainment, music, and dancing from over a dozen of the most notable performers in the Midwest will fill downtown Cincinnati with family fun, folkloric performances, and, in the evenings, full of salsa dancing. Plus, the Fountain Square stage will host traditional dancing from Mexico, Colombia, and Panama. Salsa, merengue, you name it – you’ll hear it all at Cincy-Cinco.

Attractions include a children’s area full of activities. Saturday afternoon will be dedicated to the young children with games, raffles, pinatas, and a Conga parade with all of Cincinnati’s favorite mascots during the Welcoming Event.

Cincy-Cinco’s founding partners, P&G and Kroger, will be there, as will Fifth Third Bank and Life Center Organ Donor, Duke Energy, First Financial Bank, Klosterman Bakery, Visit Cincy, and more! Attendees will have an opportunity to enter giveaways and sample products from the sponsors’ stands.

The event is the largest Latino cultural celebration in the region. It runs from 12 to 10 pm on Saturday, May 4th, and from 12 to 6 pm on Sunday, May 5th.
