Next weekend, downtown Orlando will turn into one big party as Festival Calle Orange takes over the streets for the 14th year.

Over 10 blocks of downtown will be closed for the festivities, which will showcase the sights and sounds of the Hispanic Community. Caribbean, Central America and South America will be represented in music, food, dance and more.

There will be five stages going simultaneously with live bands, including Grupo Mania, Trina, Samuel Hernandez, Tito Rojas, and Rey Ruiz. There will even be a block of entertainment just for children to enjoy.

The event takes place down Orange Ave from Colonial Dr. to Robinson St, as well as a block in each direction of Orange. Entrances to the festival can be found on Livingston St at Garland to the west and Magnolia to the east, plus at Concord and Magnolia.

This celebration of Latin America takes place October 23, 2011, from 11am to 7pm.

Festival Calle Orange is free to attend, so bring the entire family.
