This Latin American Festival offers a variety of artistic and traditional presentations including music, and dance in the form of salsa, samba and tango, film exhibition, photographs and paintings from Latin American artists.

The festival will take place from 12th-15th August 2010 in a variety of locations throughout Dublin. LANCI Latin American Festival is supported by Dublin City Council and is part of their summer program.
The festival will have something for everyone young and old. We hope that there will be something of interest for everyone throughout the festival. We would also like to bring together the Latin American communities that are living here in Ireland and use this opportunity to help them to integrate into a city that has so much to offer such as Dublin.
The overall aim of the event is fun and entertainment for all.

Come along and join us!
