When it comes to celebrating Latin culture, Las Vegas knows how to host a fiesta. In this episode of VEGAS ON, we’re kicking things off at Downtown Container Park to talk about the events surrounding Hispanic Heritage Month as we honor the achievements and contributions of Hispanic Americans. While you’re here, check out Noche Latina for live Latin music on the third Saturday of every month.

We’ll take a look at El Grito, Las Vegas’ Mexican Independence Weekend celebration held at Grand Canal Shoppes inside The Venetian Resort Las Vegas. Check out the dancing and live mariachi music at this annual cultural celebration.

You can’t celebrate Latin culture without authentic Mexican food. Fortunately, Las Vegas has incredible Mexican restaurants throughout the city, and VEGAS ON is ready to tantalize your taste buds with a peek inside Tacos & Tequila’s Sunday Mariachi Brunch at Palace Station Hotel Casino.

Next, VEGAS ON visits the House of Blues inside Mandalay Bay Resort & Casino where guitar legend Carlos Santana and his band have thrilled Vegas audiences for a decade. Its lead singer, Andy Vargas, takes us behind the scenes of this amazing musical experience.

We’ll check out the parade to celebrate the Las Vegas Aces’ WNBA championship as they became the first Las Vegas pro sports team to capture a title. And we’ll help you plan ahead and see some of the unparalleled acts heading to Las Vegas soon. We’ll show you what’s on the horizon. What’s new. What’s now. VEGAS ON.
