Toronto, Canada. – A celebration is underway as Dominicans living in Canada plan to commemorate the Dominican Republic’s debut at the Latin & Fall Fiesta Parade. This event is a part of Hispanic Heritage Month celebrations.
The occasion, which is deemed to be significant in the lives of Dominicans living in Canada, will take place on the 28th and 29th of September, 2024, at Dundas Square. This square is one of Toronto’s most notable locations.
For the foremost time, globally recognized Dominican music styles, Merengue and Bachata, will be performed live. This showcase at an important venue emphasizes the cultural exchange value and the influence of Dominican music on a global level.
The event will feature a craft exhibition showcasing the richness of Dominican crafts, along with a food area. Local businesses will serve traditional delicacies, including Bohio Taste, Steff Cakes, My Tasty Hands, Aquarela Restaurant, and El Colmado. There will be a significant representation of the national brand, with Café Santo Domingo present.
This cultural exhibit not only highlights Dominican traditions but also aims to strengthen ties between the Dominican community in Canada and the general public. In a setting conducive to participation and celebration, artisans, business owners, and musicians will demonstrate the island’s cultural and economic potential.
Dominicans in Canada, under its founder Vanessa De La Cruz’s leadership, have initiated this concept. The objective is to increase the Dominican community’s visibility and promote tourism and trade between the two nations. The event focuses on cultural diplomacy and entrepreneurship, and it promises to make an enduring impact on both the Dominican diaspora and Canadian citizens.
