The Chandler Center for the Arts has announced the 25th Annual Mariachi and Folklórico Festival, a vibrant celebration of Hispanic Heritage Month.

Set for Saturday, Oct.  5, 7 p.m., this year's celebratory festival celebrates the rich cultural traditions of Mexico through music and dance at the Chandler Center for the Arts, 250 N. Arizona Ave.

Tickets start at  $48 and can be purchased online at www.chandlercenter.org or by calling 480-782-2680. 

Presented in partnership with C.A.L.L.E. de Arizona and Maestra Vanessa Ramirez, the Festival will feature Leyendas del Mariachi.  It's an all-star ensemble comprised of musicians from groups such as Mariachi Vargas, Mariachi Cobre, and Mariachi Los Camperos.

The festival's silver (25th) anniversary will also showcase the performances of Ballet Folklórico Quetzalli-AZ and Los Lupeños de San Jose, whose colorful and dynamic dances try to capture the essence of Mexico.

With mariachis Pepe Martinez, Jr. and Miguel Barron Gigio from Mariachi Vargas, Steve Carrillo, of Mariachi Cobre, and Juan Rodriguez from Mariachi Los Comperos, among others, Leyendas del Mariachi unites musicians.
