Music, fun and Cesar Chavez Plaza: The three mix well, like a Sacramento summer cocktail. If you can’t get enough of Friday Night Concerts in the Park, a relatively new festival called Fiesta en la Calle will help you double up on your weekly dancing in the park. Literally translating to “party in the street,” the celebration of Latin and world music starts this Saturday night and continues every Saturday throughout the summer. Now in its second season, the festival was created to provide a family-friendly outlet for Latino music, culture and food. Hold onto your sombrero, because this fiesta’s lineup is hot, and many of these groups are already famous in Spanish-speaking countries.
