We want to invite artists that the public already knows and loves, but also emerging talents from the Latin American community. To be able to reward their effort and artistic talent, we need your generosity and donation!

You can earn rewards based on your generosity:

If you contribute €20, you will be entered into a draw to win a game of "Lotería Mexicana," a traditional Mexican board game that can be played by up to 10 people.

With a €30 donation, you'll be entered into a draw to receive a margarita;

With a purchase of over €40, you enter a raffle for a pair of Mexican silver earrings designed by jewelry designer H.Gareli.

The superhero who decides to seriously donate €100 (or more) to the event will be entered into a raffle to win a bottle of Tequila.

Do your part now! Contribute, participate in the raffle, and receive your reward during the Mexican Festival.

Budget and due dates

The artists have to be paid on the day of the show, and that's why with your support we can count on as many talents as possible, such as: Bruno Salgado, the unforgettable DJ of Ritmos Cholulteka; Pablo Juan, the community's "consented" tenor; the already famous folk dance group Alebrije; Karla Lamadrid, a beautiful singer; Pablo Gadea, a wonderful vocalist; DJ Villa Beats, our beloved DJ; percussion groups; and other alternative projects involving poetry and traditional Mexican music, such as "Poetrónica".

Some of these artists have already been part of the programs in previous editions, and this year they are back, while others are new projects that will surprise us. Don't miss the opportunity to socialize, eat, dine, sing and dance with us!
