A Festa

San Diego's Portuguese community holds an annual festival denominated "Festa do Espírito Santo". It's the oldest ethnic festival in the surroundings, having celebrated it's 1st century just last year. This is a mobile fest that coincides with Catholic's Pentecost. "A Festa" as it is commonly known around here is sponsored by one family from the União Portuguesa Sociedade do Espírito Santo (U.P.S.E.S.).
For one week UPSES hosts several events, with it's highlight in last Sunday's parade.
Food, drinks, traditional dancing are all part of the menu.
