Huge celebrations across the U.S. are expected to celebrate National Hispanic Heritage Month, an annual tradition that showcases the awe-inspiring diversity and culture of Hispanic people.

The 101st annual Fiestas Patrias Parade and Tardeada hit the streets of Guadalupe Sunday afternoon. Community members celebrated the start of National Hispanic Heritage Month by showcasing Hispanic and cultural organizations on the Central Coast in the parade.

Celebrate Hispanic Heritage Month and the outdoors at this festival put on by Prince George's County for the 9th year in a row. The party will include crafts, food, live animals, free boat rides and fishing demos, so it's a great chance to get out of the city and touch some grass (or water).
