LATINE HERITAGE MONTH 2026

Coming September-October

ⓘ What is Latine Heritage Month? Latine Heritage Month is the U-M's month-long celebration of Latine/a/o/x people, cultures, and contributions, taking place mid September through mid October. It coincides with National Hispanic American Heritage Month, celebrated nationally from September 15 - October 15, and first federally recognized in 1968 as Hispanic Heritage Week. Latine can be pronounced in multiple ways: "Lah-teen-uh" or "Lah-teen" or "La-ti-ne."

Latine Heritage Month at U-M is led by the Trotter/MESA's Latine Heritage Month Committee.
