Radio station WMGG-AM 820 is reviving its festival to celebrate the area's Latin community. The former Megafest, last held in 2003, is now called Megaveraneo and moves to Vinoy Park on the downtown St. Petersburg waterfront.

The festival, from noon to 10 p.m. Saturday, features a long lineup of Hispanic musical artists, including Andy Andy, Enclave, Alexa, Guanabanas, Jimena, Master Joe & OG Black, Dominic, Pantera y Emil and Charlie Cruz.

There also will be food, volleyball, domino tournaments and more.

Admission is $10 for adults and children younger than 10 are free.
