OCALA, FL (352today.com) – PartyMix Productions, founder of Festival Latino Downtown Ocala, is inaugurating its newest creation, Navidad Latin Fest. It will take place on Saturday, December 6, at Southeastern Livestock Pavilion. The festivities begin at 11 a.m. and end at 6 p.m. Guests are invited to come dressed in their favorite Christmas attire for a fa-la-la day of music, food trucks, artisans, kiosks, and fun for all ages.

The debut Christmas event promises to bring joy, culture, and the sazón from many Latin American countries. Visitors will be able to enjoy beloved beats from Vibración Musical, Latin rhythms from Albert Torres, Michael Gabriel and Passiones Band, salsa sounds from Koko Band, and tropical tunes from Ángel Correa, the “Jibaro de Saint Cloud.” Local talent will be in attendance with presentations from the students of Nieves Music Studio for musical merriment. The performance team from Devotions Dance Company will bring a performance perfect for the holiday season.

A Christmas celebration would not be complete without a visit from Santa Claus, who will be gifting toys to children. Families are invited to discover the dedicated magical area with bounce houses, a mechanical bull, and face painting throughout the festivities.

“For Latinos, Christmas is not just one day of the year. It’s a season filled with music, art, food, and gatherings with loved ones that goes on past December. Each country holds traditions that have been passed down through generations. My hope with Navidad Latin Fest is to make a space for Latinos to celebrate their customs, while also encouraging people from other cultures to join in. The more, the merrier,” said Joe Ortiz, founder and president of PartyMix Productions.

Southeastern Livestock Pavilion is located at 2232 NE Jacksonville Road in Ocala. Parking and admittance to the festival are free of charge. For updates, visit PartyMix Productions on Facebook and Instagram.
