The September 15 start date has historical significance because it coincides with the independence anniversaries of several Latin American countries, including Costa Rica, El Salvador, Guatemala, Honduras and Nicaragua.
Mexico observes its independence on September 16, while Chile celebrates its independence on September 18.
