¡Viva Tucson!
A Hispanic Heritage Month Fiesta
September 15–October 15
A cultural melting pot located just 60 miles north of the US-Mexico border, Tucson proudly embraces its rich Spanish and Mexican influences. However, the city's vibrant cultural tapestry extends beyond these roots, encompassing a diverse array of Latinx and Hispanic traditions. From the food and the history to the music and the art, the story of Hispanic culture in America is the story of Tucson.
When Hispanic Heritage Month kicks off each year in September, Tucson becomes the perfect place to celebrate the wide spectrum of Latinx and Hispanic cultures that thrive here. Dance to the music, taste the flavors, and be immersed in Tucson's unique cultural mosaic during this month of celebration – and all year round. In short, ¡Viva Tucson!
