37th Annual Fiesta de Septiembre
Friday, September 4, 2026
5pm-9pm
The Wickenburg Chamber of Commerce is once again the proud producer of Fiesta de Septiembre in historic downtown Wickenburg, Arizona. Fiesta de Septiembre is held each year to celebrate Wickenburg's early Hispanic pioneers and their heritage. In the past Fiesta de Septiembre in historic downtown Wickenburg, Arizona has been held at the Wickenburg Community Center, but due to the highly anticipated renovation of our local event center that is no longer available.
So in the spirit of embracing new ideas we have decided to shake things up and bring you a new event we are calling "Tastes of Mexico" this colorful and vibrant event will run from 5:00pm to 9:00pm on Friday September 4 at Stone Park. Wickenburg's Fiesta de Septiembre is held each year to celebrate Wickenburg's early Hispanic pioneers and their heritage. Learn about early families through cuentos , or stories, and photographs. Our focus will remain on celebrating these historic families and beautiful activities. Join us and come enjoy music from Mariachi Azteca De Oro and Barrio Latino, and enjoy performances by colorful folklórico dancers and more! An outdoor Mercado, a beer garden with exclusive Tequila tastings, Mexican food and snack vendors will all be present.
