The free annual event takes place along Miami’s famous Eighth Street, from Southwest 12th to 27th avenues, with more than 300 food vendors, exhibits, activities, and family friendly activities. It’s estimated that more than 1.5 million people typically partake in the Calle Ocho celebration every year, with Latin American foods and popular musical acts on 10 stages, representing all Latin styles. 

The official website states: “Calle Ocho Music Festival and Carnaval on the Mile canceled due to ongoing pandemic. Stay tuned for updates! Social distancing today to be part of big party tomorrow.”

Here’s hoping!
