Hispanic/Latinx Heritage Month 2025

Latinx Heritage Month is celebrated and observed annually from September 15th to October 15th in the United States.

At Lafayette College, we come together as a vibrant Hispanic, Afro-Latinx, and Latinx community through events that foster fellowship and unity. These gatherings are spaces where voices are uplifted, stories are shared, and cultures are celebrated. Together, we honor resilience, creativity, and the collective strength of our community.

September 18th

Annual Latinx Fest

Latinx Fest is a vibrant celebration of culture, community, and connection. Each year, students, faculty, staff, and friends gather to honor the rich traditions of the Hispanic, Afro-Latinx, and Latinx communities through music, food, art, and fellowship. It’s a time to share stories, showcase talents, and embrace the victories and resilience that unite us. More than just an event, Latinx Fest is a joyful reminder of the strength and beauty of our community at Lafayette especially during Hispanic/Latinx Heritage Month. This event is outdoors.
