The Columbia County Sanctuary Movement hosts its fourth annual Hudson Latinx Parade and Festival on September 15, honoring Hispanic Heritage Month with a parade down Warren Street starting at 1pm and arriving at Henry Hudson Riverfront Park by 2pm for an afternoon of music, food, and cultural celebration running into the evening.
The parade brings together community members from across Latin America and the Caribbean marching in their national colors, alongside Latinx performers, artists, and traditional attire.
At the waterfront, the festival offers food, music, and dancing, all representing the distinct culture of Latin America. Every artist, performer, and vendor involved is a member of the local Latinx community, and the festival includes a children's area with face painting and activities alongside food and craft vendors.
The night before, Hudson Brewing Co. hosts an official launch party on September 14 at 7pm with performances from local musicians, a warm-up for the main event.
The festival is organized by the Columbia County Sanctuary Movement and made possible with support from the New York State Council on the Arts and many other local organizations.
