County Executive Cancels Wheaton Hispanic Heritage Festival

Fani-González Sep 26, 2025
Montgomery County Executive canceled the Hispanic Heritage Festival in Wheaton, a decision Councilmember Natali Fani-González (District 6) publicly opposed in a Sept. 26 message to constituents. Fani-González cited the festival's role in celebrating Latino heritage, supporting immigrant-owned businesses, and bringing neighbors together. She referenced recent local events held safely and successfully as context for her disagreement.
