The experience
What's special
The Atlantic City Latino Festival is a free, family-friendly celebration of Hispanic culture organized by the Hispanic Association of Atlantic County (HAAC), held on the Atlantic City waterfront at Bader Field. It brings together live Latin music bachata, bomba, cumbia, salsa, merengue and mariachi plus folkloric dance, authentic Latin cuisine, artisan crafts and local community vendors, and functions as a re-birth of an earlier annual AC Latino event
What people love
Early attendee reaction and local coverage frame it as a warm, community-centered day out, with one festivalgoer praising the organizers for reviving the event; local press has reported turnouts of several thousand. Attendee sentiment online is still sparse, however, so this reads as an emerging rather than settled picture

Getting there
How do I get to Atlantic City Latino Festival?
By car
Most people drive to Atlantic City Latino Festival. Check current road and traffic conditions before you set off, and see parking below.
By train
The Atlantic City Rail Line runs from Philadelphia (30th Street) to the Atlantic City Rail Terminal downtown useful for attendees arriving via Philadelphia rather than flying into ACY. It does not stop at ACY itself; from the AC terminal it is a short rideshare or Jitney hop to Bader Field
Book / info →By bus & public transit
An NJ Transit bus stop sits just outside the ACY terminal, and a separate SJTA TransIT Link Shuttle runs every half hour from the airport to the Pleasantville terminal, where NJ Transit routes into Atlantic City (502/507/508/509/554/559) can be picked up. Within Atlantic City, the 24/7 Jitney minibus circulates the city for onward hops
Book / info →Taxi & rideshare
Taxi, Uber and Lyft all operate curbside at Atlantic City International Airport (ACY); a taxi service desk sits between baggage claim and the exit. ACY is about 10-12 miles from Bader Field, making rideshare the simplest fly-in option
Book / info →Taxis and rideshare such as Uber and Lyft can be limited near the venue, especially late at night or in rural areas. Agree a pickup point and time in advance and keep a backup plan.
🅿 Parking
Cost the festival is free admission.
🚙 Car hire
Compare car hire
Optional here ACY is close and rideshare covers the short hop, but a hire car suits attendees combining the festival with a wider South Jersey shore trip. Rental brands operate at ACY

Atlantic City, Ventnor and Brigantine have an active short-term-rental market. A free one-day festival is not itself a rate driver; September shoulder-season rates are generally softer than mid-summer, though casino events can still spike a given weekend
Search Airbnb →Hipcamp options near Atlantic City are in the South Jersey Pine Barrens and rural inland areas, a drive from the shore of interest to road-trippers rather than a close substitute for a casino-district hotel
