Latinapalooza is Austin’s premiere Latina/Hispanic music showcase that connects culture and community. This community show is a collaboration between the artists sponsored by City of Austin Cultural Arts Division and Emma S. Barrientos Mexican American Cultural Center.
Almost unconsciously, Austin’s Eastside is this city’s heart center. Even with updated facades and a new crop of residents, its cultural origin magnetizes new arrivals and tourists and is still home to so many who defined its history. Celebrating that history and energy are some of Austin’s most talented and beloved Latina musicians at this free, family-friendly, outdoor event.
Latinapalooza was founded by singer/songwriter, actress and entrepreneur Patricia Vonne, and it has been an official SXSW showcase for the past three years. In addition to being part of SXSW, this event is now a free showcase offered in May celebrating Latin music and culture with an all female Latina lineup performing everything from mariachi, pop, Tejano to flamenco roots rock.
“There’s a sisterhood of musicians in Austin that have put the city on an international map, but also spotlights Austin’s specific cultural heritage. I’m excited as ever to perform with and for familia,” said Patricia Vonne.
