One of the northside’s favourite food markets is throwing a giant fiesta, and you're invited! Head to Preston Market on November 9 for Latin Day – a colourful and joyful celebration of all things Latin American culture.

The free, one-day festival will feature loads of family-friendly activities, traditional entertainment and food to ensure all visitors have a bueno día. There’s no passport needed for this international adventure: countries represented in the day’s events include Mexico, Brazil, Guatemala, Colombia and more.

Bedazzled Brazilian showgirls will take to the stage just like a real Carnivale and salsa dancers will put on a show that's truly fuego. Plus, the high-energy Bandides will bring their infectious blend of cumbia, pop and reggae.

And of course, expect to feast on authentic Latin American dishes like Brazilian barbecue, Colombian pandebono, churros, paella, chorizo sausages and lots more delicious and authentic fare. 

For a fun-filled day that's free to attend, head to Latin Day on Sunday, November 9 at Preston Market from 8am to 3pm. Find out more here.
