Water Street, downtown Aurora (parking Lot B, directly across City Hall) from 1:00 p.m. – 9:00 p.m.
Admission is free to the public; however, donations are welcome.
The one-day festival will feature music, live performances, children’s area, novelty vendors, beer garden, authentic Puerto Rican food vendors (among other cuisine), refreshing piña coladas and ice cream vendors.
In addition to great entertainment and delicious food, this year the APRCC multicultural scholarship program will proudly award selected scholarship recipients on the main stage with over $15K in scholarships.
