September at LA Plaza is packed with music, film, cultura, and comunidad! 🎶🎬🇲🇽

Dance the night away at the final Summer of Salsa concert of the season, celebrate Mexican culture and traditions at Fiestas Patrias Family Day, discover new stories at the TAKE 3 Film Festival, or join us for two documentary screenings: one about the history of raicilla, an ancestral agave spirit from Jalisco, and another on two Mexican activists who infiltrated Vienna’s Weltmuseum to replace the official narrative of Moctezuma’s headdress with their own.

From Querida and No Tengo Dinero to Se Me Olvidó Otra Vez, the whole Plaza sang along all evening!

On the 10th anniversary of Juan Gabriel’s passing, we came together to celebrate the music of “El Divo de Juárez.”

John Pina brought some of his most beloved songs to life, joined by Estephanie Amaro for the unforgettable duets Juan Gabriel recorded with Rocío Dúrcal.

The evening was made even more special by the sounds of mariachi and the talented musicians who accompanied them, including Carlos Rodgarman and Juan Carlos Portillo.

Thank you to everyone who joined us for a night filled with música, and the timeless songs of Juan Gabriel.

Thank you as well to continue celebrating with LA Plaza 15 years of Cultura, Comunidad y Corazón ❤️
