Arizona Athletics' 2019 edition of its annual Hispanic Heritage Night was a celebration of an important part of the special identity of Southern Arizona. The event gives the University of Arizona an opportunity to honor, recognize and identify the importance of Hispanic culture in the community. 

It is a great collaboration between Arizona Athletics and numerous partners, including the Tucson Hispanic Chamber of Commerce, Visit Tucson, UA Hispanic Alumni Club, Adalberto and Ana Guerrero Student Center, UA Alumni Association, UA Office of Student Affairs and Enrollment Management and the UA Office of Multicultural Advancement Division of Equity, Inclusion and Title IX among others.
 

Hispanic Heritage Night speaks to the athletics department's mission to serve its diverse populations to drive the success of its mission. Arizona Athletics is committed to positively contribute and serve the Tucson community and our Wildcat fans who support our teams.

Saturday's game day versus UCLA was full of pregame festivities and in-game elements. The day began with a Latinx and Hispanic College Day student symposium inside the Student Union Building. The Coca-Cola Fan Fiesta, inside the Cole and Jeannie Davis Sports Center, featured live music and dancing from a variety of Hispanic performers. The UA Hispanic Alumni tailgate also had special Hispanic Heritage Night live music and performances.
 
Traditional folklorico dancers and mariachi bands welcomed fans as they enter the gates of Arizona Stadium with special in-game performances.
