Mike Wolanin | The Republic Food is prepared at a booth during Fiesta Latina on Fourth Street, Friday, Sept. 12, 2025, in Columbus, Indiana.
Fiesta Latina, a celebration of Latin American culture, returned to downtown Columbus for its 10th year on Friday.
Founded in 2015 by TuFuturo director Luz Elena Michel, this year’s event featured more than 20 local food vendors. A few non-food vendors offered clothing and art at the event.
For entertainment, a mariachi band and Mexican band Catedral Norteña performed.
The fiesta also serves as a fundraiser for Su Casa and its mission of increasing self-sufficiency in health, education and economic independence and ensuring that all Latino families feel safety and belonging.
