Good old plain American girls can have one and just 1 year later. We called it the Sweet 16 Party or the Coming Out Party. Have Fun, but if you want to have a Quinceanera have one, they're lots and lots of fun. Great food, any kind of music you prefer, lots of family involvement, dancing, beautiful dresses, gifts, pictures and the presentation ceremony. Buena Suerte! (Good Luck!)

Not just mexicans.
Its a Hispanic thing in general. My puerto rican friend had a Quincenera, I am dominican and had one too.
Some quinceneras may have different traditions because of the culture or something but its definitely not just Mexicans!
Alot of other hispanics and Americans (mostly) celebrate their 16. SWEET 16.

Quinceaneras are typically a latin thing. Non Latin people have Sweet 16 parties. Not sure why Latins celebrate the coming of a woman at 15, but they do.

latin people in general mostly, but the quinceanera police won't give you a ticket if you are other than latin. you can have one if you want and it's a lot of fun, but it can be pricey. 10 grand or so. like a college education. or a piano. or a trip to hawaii. or a car even. prom is basically the same thing without the price tag.

Hispanics are the only ones who traditionally have them. its a coming of age ceremony for a 15yr old girl. i havent heard its against the rules for any other race to have one. but i would suggest you have like a sweet 15 or 16 but make it really nice like a quinceanera

no, some colombians and pureto ricans do the sweet 16
some colombians and pureto ricans also do quince's
but, the mexicans mainly have the quince's
just depends on the family and their traditions
