Answer 1

Answer: Quinceañero/quinceañera is a Hispanic celebration done, usually for women when they reach the age of 15 years old, similar to the sweet sixteens.

This party usually starts with a big dinner, where the close friends and family of the birthday girl, here the girl may have a little speech, where she addresses some close friends/family and gives them a candle. Also during this part comes the vals, where the girl may dance whit family and friends.

Usually, around 12 pm, the party starts, and more guest starts to come, here the music and dance take the night.

Things like the music played, the decoration, food, and drinks may depend on in which country the event is celebrated.

Answer 2

Quinceañeros are very similar to one of a girl. They happen for many reasons, but the main reasons would be that:

1. They are the only male in the family
2.Being Hispanic and wanting to adopt
the culture and heritage
3. Being religious and wanting to honor God

They also consist of music and dancing... No. I don't think you understand. There is LOTS of dancing! Quinceaños are also meant to celebrate a young boy's birthday. As with women, the party is meant to celebrate a boy's fifth teen birthday. It's also celebrating him turning into a man, such as quinceañeras celebrate a girl becoming a woman. There is lots of food, most of it probably cake and sweets. For drinks, most quinceaños have horchata or agua de Jamaica. The party usually starts later than 5:00. Any earlier and it just looks really weird, as well as the atmosphere.

Hope this helped you. Ten un buen día.
