Free shows are first come – first serve. RSVPs are for information only. They do not hold a space. If you really want to get inside, go 1-2 hours early. But you can always enjoy the music from outside the bandshell. Picnics outside the venue can be really fun.

The festival is diverse like we are, but this is the Latin part. Our Latin concept includes the entire Caribbean, Latin America and Mother Africa.
