No one makes Christmas more magical than Nati Cano and his exceptional mariachi group Los Camperos. Much more than a holiday sing-a-long, Fiesta Navidad is a feast for the eyes and ears, featuring impeccable interpretations of traditional Mexican and American holiday songs and a lavish stage show with orchestra.
Natividad “Nati” Cano has both mirrored and shaped the history of mariachi music. Born into a family of mariachi musicians in Jalisco, Mexico, one of the many Mexican communities that gave life to the mariachi tradition, Cano’s career took him first to nearby Guadalajara and then to Los Angeles where he and Los Camperos emerged as a driving force of mariachi music in the US. For nearly 50 years, the ensemble has employed the finest musicians from Mexico and the United States, and performed for audiences worldwide.
Celebrate the season and the 50th anniversary tour of Nati’s acclaimed mariachi band on this very special evening.
