The festival spans a 7-block stretch in the heart of the Guatemalan community at Lafayette Park, operating as a free, two-day public community event where attendees can experience vibrant Guatemalan music, attractive arts and crafts, and delicious traditional food.
A press conference will take place on Thursday, August 27, at 11:00 a.m. at the Ukrainian Cultural Center located at 4315 Melrose Ave, Los Angeles, CA 90029. Free parking is available at 720 N. Heliotrope, Los Angeles, Lot #3.

Art and crafts:
Footwear, pottery, jewelry, clothing, ropa, textiles, souvenirs, table linens, and traditional handbags, etc

The Festival Chapín de Los Ángeles, alongside the Guatemalan Olympic Committee, is heading toward the Los Angeles 2028 Olympic Games to establish La Casa Guatemala (Guatemala House) during the sporting event.
Therefore, during this edition of the festival, we will have the presence of Guatemalan Olympic medalists, and we will also be joined, for the fourth time, by Lester Martínez, WBC Interim Super-Middleweight Boxing Champion.
Participation of the Guatemalan Ministry of Economy:
For the first time, the Festival Chapin Los Angeles will host a group of small business owners, artisans, and providers of different services, who will be sponsored/supported by the Ministry of Economy of Guatemala, showcasing the goods and services that Guatemala has to offer the United States
About Puerto Barrios, Izabal
Festival Chapin Los Angeles seeks to highlight the different towns and cities of Guatemala, and in this tenth edition, we've chosen to feature Puerto Barrios, Izabal.
Puerto Barrios is a municipality in the Administrative Department of Izabal, located in the northeast of Guatemala, featuring a tropical climate and friendly people. It is the country's main gateway to the Atlantic Ocean, making it a hub for industrial and tourist development.
It is characterized by its nature, with its main points being the Dulce River, El Boquerón, and San Gil Hill, among others. It is also the cradle of the Garifuna people, established mainly on Livingston Island, located at the mouth of the Dulce River into the Atlantic Ocean and accessible only by boat.

It is an unmissable stop for hundreds of international cruises, featuring a special terminal that welcomes hundreds of thousands of tourists for an unforgettable experience. Additionally, it has modern port facilities for receiving products from other countries."
However, the most outstanding feature of Puerto Barrios is its people, always friendly and with a sincere smile to welcome visitors who find in its boardwalk a meeting point for a town known as "The Land of God."
About Festival Chapín Los Angeles:
Chapin Summer Festival Inc. is a non-profit organization based in California that is dedicated to promoting Guatemalan art and culture abroad. The organization's mission is to provide resources to educational institutions in Guatemala to support the education, health, and well-being of children from less-advantaged households in the country.
