The Shops at Montebello invites the local community to celebrate Hispanic Heritage Month, between September 15 and October 15, by paying tribute of the histories, cultures and contributions of American citizens with Spanish, Mexican, Caribbean and Central and South American ancestry. The center will host special events and programming, including:

  • Saturday, September 23: The Shops at Montebello will share complimentary churros with shoppers (while supplies last).
  • Saturday, September 30: The Paseo de Oro Dance Company will be performing a traditional Mexican folkloric dance. Their unique and outstanding costume designs are sure to delight.
  • Saturday, October 7: The Shops at Montebello will share complimentary pan dulce with guests (while supplies last).

All events will be held at 2 p.m. in Center Court. Additionally, shoppers will notice signage honoring Hispanic heroes throughout the center.
