(upbeat music) - The Arts Council of Park City in Summit County is hosting the 2025 Latino Arts Festival, a vibrant celebration of Latin American art, music, dance, food, and culture.
Festival director, Andrea Zavala, is here with all the exciting details.
Andrea, thank you for being here.
- Thank you for having me.
- Yeah.
So, it's coming up again and tell me June 13th through 15th?
- June 13th through 15th at Canyons Village Park City.
It'll be our ninth celebration of the Latino culture.
- Oh, wow.
And tell me what cultures you are celebrating specifically.
- Well, we celebrate all of them, all the Latino, but then it's hard 'cause we're so many that we try to represent each year a different one.
So you'll see cultures from Argentina and Chile, Brazil, it's big this year, Ecuador, Peru, Bolivia, different ones, yeah.
- Wow, huge, and I know you've got a lot of music and dance.
- We have a lot of music and dance.
On Friday, we're gonna do a Brazilian experience.
Brazil is a huge country, so we are dedicating it a whole, not a whole day, half day, for all the dancing and the folklore that they have.
On Saturday, we have more like a community celebration.
So you have folklore from Bolivia, from Mexico, from Peru, and then you have groups that play vallenato, which is a Colombian genre from Columbia and rock.
And on Sunday, it's Father's Day.
The festival fall during Father's Day.
So we are making sure that families come and they feel like this is a good place to celebrate with their dad.
So we're gonna have, again, lots of music salsa, during the day.
We're doing a contest, soccer contest with the parents and kids.
So it should be a fun weekend.
- I know, and you, you've got a big El Mercadito coming.
- We're doing a new activation called El Mercadito.
If you're familiar with South America and Central America, you always see mercados around, which are very, very vibrant, colorful, and have lots of vendors that sell different kind of things.
So we're emulating that feeling into the festival this year.
- Great, well, you've got a lot coming up.
Thank you for doing it and thanks for being here.
- Thank you so much.
