A day-long celebration of Hispanic/Latino culture at RiverScape MetroPark in the heart of Downtown Dayton! This event kicks off Hispanic Heritage Month! There will be a parade, live music, dancing, entertainment, and authentic Latin food all day (11am-11pm), and much, much more!

The Hispanic Heritage Festival benefits the Puerto Rican, American, and Caribbean Organization (PACO). PACO is a non-profit organization dedicated to the success of the Hispanic/Latino community in the Dayton, OH area. This Festival is PACO's largest fundraiser of the year and it enables PACO to fulfill its mission through scholarships to local students, events to support the local Hispanic/Latino community and promote Hispanic/Latino culture, and other charitable initiatives. PACO is entirely run by volunteers. If you'd like to volunteer at this Festival, please message us!
