Overview

Showcasing Latin American culture, Inner West Fiesta brings the sights, sounds and tastes of the region to Sydney. First held back in 2018, the annual event is returning for a third year — so get ready for a whole day of food, music, dance, arts and crafts in Marrickville.

Sunday, January 19 is the date to pencil into your calendar, with the fun kicking off at the Sydney Portugal Community Club from 11am. That's when you'll watch samba, salsa, tango and flamenco performances, then listen to Latino bands, musicians and DJs across two stages. You'll also browse markets and — if you're feeling like picking up a new skill — maybe even take part in a dance class.

Food-wise, prepare to snack on Brazilian barbecue, Argentine empanadas, Spanish paella and Venezuelan arepas. Hankering for something sweet? Gelato, cakes and other desserts will also be on offer.

Tickets are on sale online in advance for $10, available until Friday, January 17. Or, you can pay $15 entry on the day.
