The Ybor City Festival is on the horizon and the only thing on the agenda is to celebrate the area's culture, heritage and history.

Cigar City Magazine is hosting the upcoming event with the main focus on the city's Cuban heritage by putting a spotlight on vendors serving up rich cultural foods, accompanied by live music on Sunday, December 8. 

From 11 a.m.-5 p.m., Centennial Park will be packed with food trucks serving up Cuban fare, booze alongside 200 food, cultural art and jewelry vendors.

General admission is free, make sure to bring cash for food, drinks and goods.

Last year, the festival hosted nearly 15,000 attendees so it may be in your best interest to get in there early to avoid lines. 

The day will be filled with live entertainment provided by the 12-piece Cuban band Orchestra Fuego. Bring your dancing shoes along with your appetite to celebrate Ybor City.
