#blackouttuesday Racism has no place in our community.

Dear LSF Family, With very heavy hearts we announce that Latin Sparks Festival will not be taking place this summer. This decision was made in alignment with Public Health Ontario guidelines, the City of Ottawa, and the City of Toronto. All ticket holders have been notified of their ticket options by email. The Latin Sparks Festival has always strived to do one thing: bring the community together to celebrate Latin dance and culture. Over the past year, our team has worked e...xtremely hard with our suppliers, vendors and artists to create an incredible experience for you all this summer. Then, the global pandemic happened. And while we will absolutely miss your smiling faces, we support our partners in public health in taking the necessary precautions to keep our community safe and healthy. In the meantime, stay connected with us @latinsparksfestival as we work creatively to deliver new ways to celebrate Latin dance and culture. 2021 here we come! Stay Safe & Keep on Dancing!

Happy Cinco de Mayo! May the delicious chilaquiles, tacos, and guacamole be with you! If you're looking for a lil more fiesta tonight, check out @siempretequila live to see @itznicop and @kristomadj perform!
