33rd Annual Mariachi Spectacular de Albuquerque

Now in its 33rd year, Mariachi Spectacular is the country’s largest, most comprehensive Mariachi concert/conference event. We are so excited for this year’s conference and look forward to seeing all the amazing students who have incredible talent and love for this beautiful art form. The conference includes three days of classroom instruction at the Albuquerque Convention Center, taught by internationally recognized Mariachi practitioners who are world renowned teachers/ ethnomusicologists, and master teachers who also serve as role models. These celebrated Mariachi maestros transfer their knowledge to future generations, as students learn directly from them. Classes are offered at beginning, intermediate, and advanced levels. This event serves as a bridge between masters and new generations and preserves the mariachi music genre.

Mariachi Spectacular is excitedly planning this year’s 33rd Annual Event! We hope you join us on July 9th– 11th at the Albuquerque Convention Center in beautiful downtown Albuquerque. It will be a momentous occasion!
