Enjoy an afternoon of the Valley's most talented youth performers at the 12th Annual El Puente Festival, a free event presented by Cultural Coalition at Tempe Center for the Arts (TCA) on Sunday, April 21, 2024 from 2 to 6 p.m.

Known for its signature community parade across the bridge, or “el puente” in spanish, this festival brings together artists of all ages to highlight the importance of connecting traditional arts and culture practices from one generation to the next. Youth mariachi bands, ballet folklórico dances, and free arts activities are just a few of the things attendees will enjoy during this event. The festival will also have a variety of educational and arts activities for youth of all ages, including free books, hands-on crafts, and activities that get excited feet moving.

The Festival is free and open to the public thanks in part to the support of the City of Tempe, NALAC, TCC Gives, Raza Development Fund, Inc. and individual donors.
