Edinburg- The mariachi festivities for FESTIBA kicked off this past weekend at the UTRGV Performing Arts Complex. Every year, hundreds of mariachi students from across the Rio Grande Valley attend the workshops and competition. Take a look at this video.
Our Assistant Station Manager Yuliana Quiroz captured this video of the competition. Among the invited were Maestro Jose Hernandez, internationally known as the founder and director for Mariachi Sol de Mexico and Mariachi Reyna de los Ángeles. The event concluded with a mariachi concert featuring the first place vocal competition winners, the group winners in the Middle School level, and the first place winners of the 4A, 5A, and 6A High School Varsity levels.
