South Florida is, of course, known for its considerable Hispanic population. Many of the Miami events scheduled each year reflect that. From Calle Ocho to Hispanic Heritage Month, there are plenty of options available. Here is another one you may want to consider in 2008: The Colombian Independence Day Festival.
The Florida festival, which is scheduled for July 2008, is a great opportunity to learn about another culture while having a great time. The event is a celebration of Columbia gaining its Independence from Spain in the 1800s. And what a celebration it will be! Like the parties thrown every Fourth of July, there will be lots of music, great food and dancing. There will also be exhibitions that will help visitors better understand the culture.
This great Miami event is scheduled to take place at the Fair Expo Centre located at 10901 SW 24 Street and will begin at Noon. The action will not stop until 11 that night, giving gusts plenty of time to take it all in. While detailed plans, including performers and exhibitors, have not yet been announced, you can keep up with the latest developments by calling the Centre at 305-223-7060. You will not want to miss this great event that will be fun for the whole family.
As always, when planning a vacation to see the Colombian Independence Festival, make sure to plan your trip in advance. Miami-Info.com features many local hotel and Miami car rental listings to make making those plans as easy as possible.
