"We've been waiting for COVID-19 to allow us to bring this event to Bendigo," he said.

"There are a lot of events in Melbourne, so why not bring it to regional Victoria.

"The Latin community is growing in the city so it will be a great chance to bring everyone together to celebrate our cultures."

This festival is family friendly and will bring a bit of Latin America to Bendigo in the hopes of offering the community a better understanding of the cultures of Spanish-speaking cultures.

It will feature music from DJ Juan Opalo and Latin band Calle Luna, Latin food trucks, Latin dancing workshops, Storytime with Liliana, piatas and more.

"We really want to help locals enjoy everything our cultures have to offer," Mr Restrepo said.
