HEART.
COMMMUNITY.  
CULTURE.
LOISAIDA.

This iconic event continues to  focus on Latino culture, music, cuisine, and art, while envisioning a brighter, greener, and healthier future for our ever growing communities.

In keeping with our annual tradition, this year’s Loisaida Festival will represent a culmination of the year-round programming that has taken place at the Loisaida Center, highlighting new and ongoing partnerships that serve individuals of all ages and backgrounds living in the Lower East Side and beyond.

The Loisaida Festival attracts over 15,000 visitors annually from all walks of life—families, long-time and new residents, neighbors, and visitors from the surrounding boroughs, and the larger Tri-State Area. It is also a hybrid
in-person/digital event with LIVE streaming through our growing media and technology community production studio and 24/7 digital program (Loisaida-TV).

Each year the festival’s main stage and pre-festival activities are graced with the presence of distinguished organizational leaders, elected and government officials, top tier musical entertainers and performers.
