Get Ready for the Laredo College Family Fun Fest! Happening February 28th!

There’s something special about events that bring the entire community together, and the Laredo College Family Fun Fest does exactly that. Set against the historic backdrop of the Fort McIntosh Campus, this annual celebration is more than just an afternoon of entertainment! It’s a reminder of how education, culture, and family intersect in the heart of Laredo.

From the moment families arrive, the energy is contagious. Kids laugh as they enjoy inflatable rides and carnival style attractions, music fills the air, and local performances turn the campus into a lively, colorful festival. With free activities, games, a petting zoo experience, live music, and plenty of food and refreshments, the Family Fun Fest truly offers something for everyone, whether you’re a parent, student, or simply looking for a fun weekend plan.

In this HOLA! Exclusive, meet Mariana Rodriguez, Assistant Director of Student Life at Laredo College. Her passion for creating meaningful, inclusive experiences is evident throughout the festival. “This event is about opening our campus to the community,” Mariana shared. “We want families to feel welcome here, to create memories together, and to see Laredo College as a place full of opportunity, culture, and connection.”

The performances highlight local talent, the activities are designed for all ages, and the atmosphere feels intentional welcoming, joyful, and community centered. It’s also a chance for families to explore the campus, learn more about Laredo College programs, and feel inspired by an institution that truly invests in its people.

As part of the WBCA celebrations and proudly supported by the AEP Texas Foundation, the Laredo College Family Fun Fest continues to be a cherished tradition, one that blends fun with heart.
