Celebrating Diversity and Culture in Los Angeles
Fiesta Broadway is an annual, vibrant street festival that takes place in downtown Los Angeles, California. This massive celebration is a testament to the city’s rich cultural diversity, featuring a dazzling array of music, dance, food, and art that showcases the unique heritage and traditions of the many communities that call Los Angeles home.

In 2019, Fiesta Broadway celebrated its 30th anniversary with grand festivities, marking a significant milestone in its commitment to celebrating diversity and culture in Los Angeles. Sadly, in 2020, the festival had to take a hiatus due to the COVID-19 pandemic, prioritizing the safety of the community. However, the good news is that Fiesta Broadway is set to make a triumphant return in 2024! After a brief hiatus, the streets of downtown Los Angeles will once again come alive with the vibrant spirit of this beloved event, bringing together people from all walks of life to celebrate the city’s diverse cultures, music, dance, and culinary delights, reaffirming its status as a unifying tradition in the City of Angels.
As Fiesta Broadway continues to evolve, it remains a powerful symbol of cultural pride and unity in Los Angeles. It serves as a testament to the city’s commitment to celebrating its rich diversity and fostering connections among its residents, all while providing a joyous and memorable experience for everyone who attends.
HISTORY
Fiesta Broadway had humble beginnings, dating back to 1990 when it was first organized by a group of visionary individuals who sought to create a cultural event that would unite the diverse communities of Los Angeles. The festival’s founders aimed to provide a platform for showcasing the city’s multicultural tapestry while fostering unity and understanding among its residents.
Over the years, Fiesta Broadway grew in popularity and size, eventually taking over several blocks of downtown Los Angeles, including Broadway Street, hence its name. It became an annual tradition eagerly anticipated by both locals and visitors. The festival’s success can be attributed to its ability to adapt and evolve, reflecting the changing demographics and interests of the city’s residents.
Fiesta Broadway is known for its dynamic programming, featuring live music performances, dance shows, traditional folkloric displays, and a wide variety of food vendors serving up delicious cuisine from various cultures. The event also provides a platform for local artists, artisans, and community organizations to showcase their talents and share their messages.
One of the festival’s highlights is the vibrant Cinco de Mayo parade that winds its way through the heart of downtown Los Angeles. The parade includes colorful floats, marching bands, traditional dancers, and representatives from the city’s diverse cultural communities. It is a symbol of the unity and inclusivity that Fiesta Broadway represents.
Over the years, Fiesta Broadway has not only celebrated Mexican culture and Cinco de Mayo but has also embraced and incorporated the traditions of many other cultures represented in Los Angeles, including Central American, South American, Asian, and European communities. This inclusive approach has made the festival a true reflection of the city’s multicultural spirit.
