The Great San Juan Festival
June 7 @ 10:00 am - 1:00 pm
The Great San Juan Festival is more than a celebration—it’s a vibrant expression of heritage, rhythm, and cultural unity. Rooted in Afro-Venezuelan traditions, this annual event brings the pulse of the coast to life with powerful drums, dynamic dances, and bursts of color that fill the streets each June 24th.
In 2025, we’re bringing that same energy to Forsyth Park in collaboration with the Forsyth Farmers’ Market. Join us on Saturday, June 7th, from 10 AM to 1 PM, for a festive preview led by Tambores Bombaya and their director, Jeickov Vital.
Feel the rhythm of **over 14 drummers—both kids and adults—**as they come together to honor joy, abundance, and the spirit of family through music and movement. This is your chance to experience a powerful cultural tradition that beats straight from the heart.
Come celebrate with us!
