Mariachi Arcoiris de Los Angeles

Summer

Aug 26 - 27

8:00 PM


Mariachi Arcoiris de Los Angeles, the world's first LGBTQ+ mariachi band, presents the infectious sounds and rhythms from south of the border in back-to-back performances on our pop-up outdoor stage.

The unique and dynamic ensemble, which showcases the musical and folklore traditions of Mexico’s rich culture, and "encompasses what it means to live harmoniously" (Fodors Travel), made history when it created a haven where mariachi musicians who identify as LGBTQ+ can come together and perform traditional Mexican regional music in an otherwise “machista” and discriminating subculture of the mariachi world.

Led by director Carlos Samaniego, Mariachi Arcoiris de Los Angeles, features among its ranks Natalia Melendez, the first transgender woman in the history of mariachi.
