What to Do on Calle Ocho

Calle Ocho is the epicenter of Little Havana. It's home to all sorts of authentic Cuban coffee shops and open-air fruit stands selling fresh-squeezed guarapo (sugarcane juice). It's fun just to walk around and see what the locals are doing (most likely conversing on every corner over hand-rolled cigars), but if you need a plan, there are plenty of things to see and do.

• Domino Park: One of the greatest displays of Calle Ocho culture is Maximo Gomez Park, also known as Domino Park. Here is where an older generation of Cubans meet to drink cortado and play dominos. This 35-year tradition attracts some pretty large crowds, too.
• Walk of the Stars: Around the corner from Domino Park, don't miss Paseo de las Estrellas—the Walk of Stars—like the one in Hollywood, but with Latin American artists.
• Memorials: At the corner of 13th Avenue is a memorial park with monuments to many Cuban heroes, like Jose Marti (poet and revolutionary) and Antonio Maceo (war hero). Then, there's the Island of Cuba Memorial and the Memorial Flame (to the heroes of the Bay of Pigs).
• Cultural Friday: Come on a Friday for Viernes Culturales, an art, music, and cultural festival held on the last Friday of the month. You can expect music, dancing, street performers, food, local artist's wares, and theater at this Latin street party.
• The Calle Ocho Festival: If you happen to be in town during this March extravaganza, then you'll be treated to 1 million-plus people dancing, eating, partying, and flaunting their colorful costumes in the streets. Major news crews come to broadcast the event as Cubans from all over the country return to celebrate their roots.
