The Fiestas Patrias, Oklahoma City Festival, is Oklahoma’s most official Mexican and Central American Independence Day celebration. For over ten years, our festivals have brought unity to all Oklahoma communities while genuinely displaying the culture of Mexico and Central America. This year in addition to the 211th Anniversary Celebration of Mexico’s Independence, the Central American countries of Guatemala, Honduras, Nicaragua, El Salvador, Costa Rica celebrate the Bicentennial of their independence from Spain.
The festival is free to attend and includes live music, folkloric dancing, activities for children, an official ceremony with representatives of Mexico, Guatemala, and other Central American countries, and the crowning of Miss Fiestas Patrias.
