Husband and wife Victor Padilla and Jolie Gonzalez-Padilla organized the first Cuban Sandwich Festival at Ybor City's Centennial Park in May of 2012 to celebrate the heritage and food Padilla grew up with in Tampa.
Over the years, the festival has become an Ybor institution - just like the sandwich it celebrates. The 13th annual Cuban Sandwich Festival hits historic Centennial Park from noon to 6 p.m. on Sunday, May 26th and Padilla expects a crowd as large as 25,000. They will come for Latin music by the bands Revelacion Salsera and Orquesta INFINIDAD, vendors selling jewelry, clothing and other cultural items, Cuban sandwich-inspired art and, of course, the food.
