Calle Ocho Walk of Fame

The Latin Walk of Fame is located in Little Havana on Calle Ocho. It is a collection of stars entrenched in the pavement which signifies specific dedications to the Latin stars that have impacted the culture, community, and traditions. This stretch of sidewalk is known by several different names. The Latin Walk of Fame is also known as the Calle Ocho Walk of Fame or Hispanic Hollywood. The pink marble stars embedded in the sidewalk are constant memories of accomplishments of artist and organizations in the Latin community. The Calle Ocho Walk of Fame is mimicked after the Hollywood Walk of Fame and was constructed to recognize and celebrate Latin stars with ties to South Florida. The first star was positioned on the Latin Walk of Fame in 1987 in honor of Celia Cruz, a famous Cuban salsa dancer.
