Ugly Holiday Sweater Fiesta

Get ready to wrap up the year with laughter, música, and plenty of holiday cheer at our Ugly Holiday Sweater Fiesta!

Come ready to show off your most creative (and ugliest!) holiday sweater—bonus points for cultural flair like La Virgen de Guadalupe, El Chavo del 8, or a festive piñata! We’ll have prizes for creativity, humor, and cultural pride!

This celebration brings together the joyful spirit of the holidays with the warmth and flavor of Latino traditions, because the best way to celebrate the season is con comunidad.

• Music & Games – Dance to salsa, cumbia, and holiday favorites, plus enjoy fun activities like Lotería or Latin trivia.
• Ugly Sweater Contest – Encourage everyone to go beyond the usual reindeer and snowflakes. Let’s see sweaters featuring piñatas, abuelita’s chocolate, tamales, or even novelas-inspired designs. Prizes for Best Overall, Most Culturally Creative, and Funniest Sweater.
• Food & Drinks – Savor delicious bites and drinks inspired by the flavors that remind us of home.
• Community & Connection – Close out the year surrounded by good energy, laughter, and belonging. Everyone is welcome to join the fun!

This isn’t just a party—it’s a space to connect, share traditions, and celebrate the joy that comes from gathering together. Because las fiestas son más bonitas cuando las pasamos juntas
