Canada Day marks the beginning of the Latin American Week we will start the festivities by supporting the diversity of Latin culture during the Canada Day Parade.
Date/Time: Jul 1 2016, 4:00 pm to 9:00 pm
Vancouver, DowntownCost: Free
July 1st is a huge fiesta of more than 200 participants, representing different Latin American countries. Latincouver will join the Canada Day parade with its South American ‘Chiva’ bus, adorned with flowers and flags from different Latin American countries. There will be a DJ and dancers on the ‘Chiva’ bus, encouraging people to dance with them to the sounds of the Latin tunes.
This event brings together a culturally diverse population and is an opportunity for Latin communities to show the joy and rhythm that characterizes us.
This year we will all dress in white to distinguish ourselves as a group. This is also a good way to highlight the colors of our countries, painting our faces with our flags. Be proud to represent Latin America, to be part of Canada and to live in Vancouver!
