The Latino Cultural Arts Center (LCAC) along with the Metropolitan State University Music Department proudly announce that the Viva Southwest Mariachi Festival is returning to Levitt Pavilion Denver. Join us on Mexican Independence Day (September 16th) for a spectacular night of Mariachi. Come celebrate the best Youth talent from across the state with the Mariachi Estelares de Colorado.

Headlining the festival is Latin Grammy Award Winner Flor de Toloache. The all-female group mixes tradition and innovation, breaking boundaries with its edgy, versatile, and fresh take on traditional Latin American music. Like the legendary love potion that the Toloache flower represents in Mexico, the talented New York ensemble casts a spell over audiences with soaring vocals and elegance.
