La India, Pitbull, and Menudo … Celebrate Carnaval Miami at Little Havana’s Calle Ocho – Sunday, March 16 (wish I was going)

Tagged: , , , , , , , ,

“It’s mid-March, which means it’s time for Carnaval Miami’s legendary Calle Ocho street party. The free event — this year celebrating its 30th anniversary — attracts more than a million people from all over the world, making it the largest Spanish-language music festival in the nation.

It all began in 1978, when the Kiwanis Club of Little Havana organized a Cuban-style carnival to highlight Miami’s growing Hispanic heritage. But what originally started out as a local celebration of Cuban culture quickly grew to encompass music genres from all of Latin America.”*
