Walt Disney World’s 2026 Hispanic and Latin American Heritage Month celebration runs September 15 through October 15, with the most useful trip-planning dates concentrated at EPCOT.
This is not a separate hard-ticket event. Most offerings fold into regular park and resort programming, so guests already visiting during the month can add concerts, characters, and select hotel activities to an existing plan.

2026 EPCOT Hispanic Heritage Month Concert Dates
Disney’s official 2026 announcement lists five Latin music acts in the Eat to the Beat Concert Series:
- Latin Ambition: September 15–17
- Grupo Mania: September 20–21
- Metro Latino Band: September 22–24
- Rey Ruiz: October 5–6
- Viva Latina: October 9–11
The concerts take place during EPCOT International Food & Wine Festival and require valid EPCOT admission. Use our 2026 Food & Wine Festival guide to connect the music dates with festival booths and other entertainment.
Hispanic and Latin American Characters at Magic Kingdom
The Disney Adventure Friends Cavalcade includes Mirabel, Miguel, Princess Elena of Avalor, José Carioca, and Panchito during the celebration. Cavalcade times can change, so check the My Disney Experience app on your park day rather than building a rigid schedule around an older time.
Disney Resort Activities During Together We Are Magia
Disney Resort hotel guests may find Hispanic and Latin American-inspired stories, music, dance, and films during select Movies Under the Stars programs. These activities vary by hotel and date; ask the resort recreation team or check the posted weekly calendar after arrival.
The celebration also includes a new Coco merchandise collection. Because merchandise can sell out and does not change most trip decisions, treat it as an optional extra rather than the reason to choose a park day.
What Requires a Disney World Park Ticket?
EPCOT concerts and Magic Kingdom cavalcade viewing require admission to those parks. Resort activities are intended for Disney hotel guests, while Disney Springs is open without theme-park admission. Disney says all offerings are subject to change and may be available only for a limited time.
Which part of the month-long celebration fits your trip best: an EPCOT concert night, character viewing, or a quieter resort activity? Tell Peter the Pirate on Facebook.
