Latin Food Fest NYC

Latin Food Fest NYC, the cultural juggernaut returning September 13–14 to Industry City, announces the launch of We Feed America, a nationwide campaign spotlighting the immigrant hands that fuel America’s kitchens and communities. 

The initiative kicks off with limited-edition “We Feed America” t-shirts, with 100% of proceeds benefitting the nonprofit Street Eats Foundation, dedicated to incubating the next generation of immigrant- and POC-owned food businesses.

But that’s only one piece of the story.

Latin Food Fest NYC is set to be the most ambitious Latin cultural experience ever staged in the city — a collision of food, music, sport, and spectacle on a scale New York has never seen. Attendees can expect:

•The Market: 70+ of the city’s top Latin street food vendors curated into the ultimate open-air food hall.

•The Music: Live performances including Bataya in partnership with Red Bull, a Bad Bunny look-alike showdown, and a lineup of artists that bridge genres and generations.

•The Activations: A Verizon-sponsored soccer lounge, a Jack Daniels Blackberry VIP experience, interactive games, and sponsor-led cultural touchpoints designed to surprise at every turn.

•The Unity: More than a festival, this is a moment — a coming together of cultures under one flag, one beat, one flavor.

“We built Latin Food Fest as more than a festival. It’s a movement,” said Marco Shalma, founder of MASC Hospitality Group. “From immigrant street vendors to global icons, we’re showing the full spectrum of Latin excellence — and we’re giving back to the very communities that make it possible.”

Latin Food Fest NYC isn’t entertainment. It’s a cultural benchmark. It’s a once-a-year moment where 20,000+ New Yorkers gather, eat, dance, and step into the future of America’s cultural mainstream.

Tickets are available now at NYLatinFoodFest.com.
