Colombian Cultural Connection is a community organisation which aims to foster Colombian culture and traditions within the local Colombian community in Perth.

Founded in November 2012, Colombian Cultural Connection has successfully hosted weekly traditional dance workshops for adults and children and has also promoted their rich and diverse culture to the wider Australian community through special performance events.

Now the Colombian Cultural Connection is proudly presenting their next venture - the inaugural ''.



This vibrant one day only cultural festival will celebrate Colombian folklore, food, dance and music in a fun and festive atmosphere.

All are welcome to attend this family-friendly event, which will be held on Sunday 20th October 2013 from 12pm until 6pm at Forrest Centre Reception Centre in Perth.

Throughout the afternoon festival-goers will be invited to sample traditional Colombian delicacies, including the ever popular stuffed arepas and empanadas, Traditional Colombian barbecue, Colombian seafood caswela (casserole) and ceviche. Salpicon de frutas will also be served to accompany these dishes.

In addition to the food delights, festival-goers can also enjoy a range of entertainment - there will be local musicians performing popular Colombian traditional music - Vallenato WA - and there will also be traditional cultural dance performances.



Children are invited to join in the party atmosphere by participating in a traditional dress competition: to register your child, simply send a message to Colombian Cultural Connection via Facebook - note your child's full name, age and costume name.

Tickets for this event are now on sale through Information Planet (326 Hay St Perth WA 6000), Ria LC Transfers (Suite 2 / 335 Newcastle St Northbridge WA 6003) and Latin Link Education Services (Suite 13 / 335 Newcastle St Northbridge WA 6003).
