About Us

Seattle Fiestas Patrias commemorates the independence of Latin American countries, many of which celebrate their national independence day in the month of September. Sea Mar Community Health Center festivals are held at both Seattle Center and the South Park neighborhood of Seattle to celebrate the Latino community living in the Pacific Northwest.

Fiestas Patrias is an expression of Latino culture: music, dance, food, folklore and many other traditions that have accumulated over the centuries. This is a fiesta to celebrate our history while taking pride in the new generations of Latinos that now call the United States home.

Sea Mar Seattle Fiestas Patrias festivals are always celebrated during one weekend in mid-September. On Saturday, Sea Mar hosts its traditional parade and community festival in South Park. On Saturday and Sunday, attendees can also find music, dance, food, art exhibitions, health fair and more at the Seattle Center.
