The Latin Food Fest will return to New York City from Sept. 13 to 15, transforming Industry City into a vibrant hub of Latin flavors, music, and culture.

After drawing crowds at Pier 76 in Hudson River Park last year, the festival will move to Industry City in Brooklyn, which offers more space and capacity for the event.

This year’s festival will feature over 70 vendors, including established NYC restaurants, emerging street vendors, and culinary teams from across Latin America and the Caribbean. But the experience goes far beyond what’s on your plate. 

The festival’s new location offers space for three live music zones, eight cultural activity spaces, and enough area for attendees to roam freely across tents. Scheduled performers include Mariachi Real de Mexico, Mala Fe, Maraca Bruja, Yasser Tejeda, Los Rakas, Plena del Puente, Regional Samauma, and DJs from Uptown Vinyl Supreme.

Organizers describe the move to Industry City as part of efforts to support community-focused programming and provide a venue that highlights Latin culture. The festival is also planning to expand to five cities in 2026, with events scheduled for Miami, Los Angeles, Chicago, Atlanta, and Dallas. The festival has also received support from sponsors such as NBC, Verizon, and Brown-Forman.

To attend on one day, participants can buy a 25$ all-access pass. Those looking to participate on both dates can purchase a VIP weekend pass for 75$. Tickets can be purchased on Latin Food Festival’s official website.
