Albany LatinFest

It's Albany Latin Festival's 29th year! We're back on August 22, 2026, at Washington Park in Albany, NY! Albany Latin Festival Association is raising funds and promoting initiatives to promote Latino culture and performing artists. We are urgently taking action to enhance an appreciation for multicultural diversity by promoting the inclusion of Latino performers in community performance spaces. Please join us by supporting our efforts to improve "Appreciation through Inclusion."

Appreciation Through Inclusion

The Albany LatinFest has established a unique platform in the Capital Region, providing the local Hispanic population with deserved recognition as a vital element of the community, showcasing local, regional and international performing artists, providing commercial and non-profit businesses and organizations with access to the local Hispanic population, and engaging in coalition building efforts to address recent disaster relief efforts.

The Albany Latin Festival Association (ALFA) was a principal organization involved in the Puerto Rico Disaster Relief Team of the Capital Region (A Special Project of Centro Civico, Inc.), which produced a major Benefit Concert at The EGG on the New York State Plaza and was involved in the development and production of other disaster relief efforts, including a Benefit Concert at Page Hall. In addition, ALFA has contributed several thousands of dollars in scholarships to aspiring students throughout the Capital District through its coalition with the YMCA/Black & Latino Achievers Program.
