Nonnative Navidad: Men dressed as Los Reyes Magos, or Three Kings, parading in Miami in 2014 as part of the city's Latino Christmas season tradition.

This year marks the much-anticipated return of Miami’s Three Kings Day Parade — after COVID forced a hiatus in 2021.

The parade celebrates the popular Hispanic holiday that commemorates the three wise men who visited Jesus in the Biblical Christmas story.

Three Kings Day and the annual street event had been a Miami tradition for decades.

The City of Miami will host the parade Jan. 12 along Southwest 8th street in Little Havana. The city says the parade will begin at 12 noon and feature parade floats and musical performances.
