Preparations are in full swing for the region’s annual celebration of Latin American culture taking place this October.
La Feria will take over multiple Merseyside venues from 1st to 5th October 2025 and organisers have promised that it will be ‘bigger, bolder, and more unforgettable than ever’.
The theme for this year’s event is “Experience, Belong, Celebrate” with audiences invited to dive into a vibrant celebration of Latin American music, art and culture.
The festival will feature thought-provoking theatre, an exhibition of Latin American artists’ work and past festivals, a takeover of World Museum Liverpool, and a chance to experience the sounds and taste of the continent with authentic workshops, traders and cuisine at The Black-E.
From powerful live music to stories that stir the soul, the events have been curated by Liverpool’s own Luma Creations to transport audiences across borders and ‘connect them with the beating heart of Latin America’.
Highlights of the 2025 festival include an entrancing evening of theatre and music at Unity Theatre on Wednesday 1st October, with a special opening from La Charawilla, followed by Pepa Duarte’s acclaimed solo performance Eating Myself.
The journey then moves through a series of unforgettable concerts, from the intimacy of the Philharmonic Music Room with local artists Saranne & Alex alongside Chile’s Antonio Monasterio Ensamble on Thursday 2nd October, across to the British Music Experience with Grupo Luma and Seba Barrientos Trío from Frutillar on Friday 3rd October.
The festival then heads over the water to Future Yard in Birkenhead for a night guaranteed to get audiences moving, featuring the legendary Kumbia Boruka and Chapulines on Saturday 4th October.
And this year, La Feria reaches even further, building powerful new links between Liverpool and Chile’s UNESCO Cities of Music. These groundbreaking partnerships are opening doors for future collaborations and creative exchanges.
La Feria takes place from 1st to 5th October across venues in Liverpool and Birkenhead. More information and ticket links for each event can be found via TicketQuarter
