Raíces Festival is more than just an event. It is a celebration of identity, tradition, and the vibrant spirit that brings communities together. Founded officially in 2019, Raíces was born from the desire to celebrate, promote, and preserve the rich cultural heritage of the Hispanic community while also creating a space where everyone, no matter their background, feels welcomed and inspired.

Based in Frankfort, Indiana, we have proudly hosted cultural events, educational workshops, and empowerment programs that uplift voices and strengthen community ties. Through music, dance, food, and art, Raíces Festival honors the traditions that connect generations while creating new experiences that invite all people to come together in joy, respect, and unity.

Our mission goes beyond preserving culture. We aim to build bridges of understanding between people of all walks of life. Whether you are part of the Latino community or a neighbor curious to learn and celebrate alongside us, Raíces is a place for you. This festival is a powerful reminder that while our stories may be different, our desire for connection, pride, and belonging is shared.

Raíces means “roots” and together, we grow stronger.
