Expo Latino 25th Anniversary Celebration

The first Expo Latino Festival commenced 25 years ago this month! To honour this milestone we will celebrate it BIG at the B!G ART Drive-In. 

This is a FREE and family friendly outdoor event. It's using a hybrid of virtual and in-person delivery to make sure everybody can enjoy the shows and concerts.

You can enjoy the event onsite from the beer garden or your car. The site features 3 LED video screens and besides the stage sound you can also enjoy the audio of the show through your car radio (FM transmission).

This event is presented by the Hispanic Arts Society and it is possible thanks to our sponsors and collaborators: the City of Calgary, Calgary Arts Development, and Rise UP Calgary.

COVID-19 Specific Rules and Regulations:

1. DO NOT COME TO THE EVENT IF YOU ARE SYMPTOMATIC, HAVE BEEN IN CONTACT WITH ANYONE WHO HAS BEEN INFECTED OR SOMEONE WHO IS SYMPTOMATIC, HAVE TRAVELLED OUTSIDE OF CALGARY RECENTLY, ARE STILL IN QUARANTINE, RECENTLY RELEASED FROM QUARANTINE, AND/OR BELIEVE YOU HAVE BEEN EXPOSED TO COVID-19. This is for everyone’s protection. Please be responsible.

1. THE GOLDEN RULE - You are not to leave your car for any reason outside of using the bathroom, visiting the food trucks, or a major medical emergency (with the exception of lawn chairs and the bed of your trucks/trunks). Security will patrol all lanes, and you will be escorted off the property if you break this rule. One of the only ways we prevent infection is by limiting close contact between household units. Physical distancing is a key measure in fighting this virus. If you are in medical distress, please signal a staff member, and they will coordinate the appropriate first responders. If we cannot abide by this rule, we will no longer have events of this nature or any other. We believe in you and our greater community to abide by this very simple rule so we can congregate and share in this experience together.
   
   If you are utilizing one of our patios, the same rules apply. After you have been escorted to your designated patio, you must remain there until the experience has ended (unless you are going to the bathroom, or visiting the food trucks). Do not bring coolers, large food storage bags, stoves, or any other “camping” style equipment. Please dress weather appropriate for the patios as they have no coverings.

1. Pets are prohibited. 

1. There are permanent washroom facilities on-site, sanitized in accordance with current AHS guidelines. However, public washrooms are considered a high-risk facility for infection, so please refrain from using these facilities unless absolutely necessary. Please follow all posted rules and regulations and maintain physical distancing. You are strongly recommended to wear a mask at all times when using these facilities.
