Festival del Platano
Nov 08, 2025
From: 1:00 PM to 6:00 PM
Allapattah’s Caribbean heritage takes center stage as the neighborhood’s signature community celebration returns with music, art and, of course, plenty of plátanos.
The Festival del Plátano features live performances, art exhibits, traditional plantain-based dishes, kids’ activities and a local market spotlighting small businesses. This year’s guest artist, Dominican muralist Néstor “Angurria” García, brings his acclaimed Doña Patria: Dominican Beauty series to the event, celebrating Dominican identity and creativity through bold, colorful imagery.
Presented by the Allapattah Collaborative CDC with support from the City of Miami and Commissioner Miguel Angel Gabela, the festival honors the culinary and cultural legacy of “Plátano Power” while fostering community pride and connection.
The 2nd Annual Festival del Plátano takes place at Juan Pablo Duarte Park in Little Santo Domingo on Saturday, November 8. Admission is free.
