What is a Quinceañera?
A quinceañera (also fiesta de quinceañera, quince años, fiesta de quince años, quinceañero and quinces) is a celebration of a girl’s 15th birthday. It has cultural roots in Mexico and is widely celebrated by girls throughout Latin America. The girl celebrating her 15th birthday is a quinceañera). In Latin America, the term quinceañera is reserved solely for the honouree; In English, primarily in the United States, the term is used to refer to the celebrations and honours surrounding the special occasion.
This birthday is celebrated differently from any other as it marks the transition from childhood to young womanhood. In the past, parallel customs could be found in Southern Europe mainly Spain and France. Today, the custom remains strongest in Mexico. However, it is widely celebrated in Spanish-speaking countries in the Americas. The grandest parties are comparable to British and American debutante balls. The celebrations themselves vary significantly in different countries; for example, the festivities in some have taken on more religious overtones than in others. Nowadays, the quinceañera is also celebrated by many Latino Americans in the United States and around the world each according to their traditions.
