This momentous occasion coincides with the anniversary of the discovery of America, as well as the celebration of the declaration of independence in countries like Costa Rica, El Salvador, Guatemala, Honduras, Nicaragua, Chile and Mexico.
As part of its commitment to the celebration of diversity in the most vibrant city on the planet, for 2022, NYC & Company curated 28 events scheduled from September 15 through October 15.
