Celebrate the soul of Puerto Rico with four-time GRAMMY-nominated Plena Libre. Firmly rooted in Puerto Rican plena and bomba styles, these musical superstars fuse well-loved traditions with modern Afro-Caribbean influences. Their hard-hitting horns, master hand drummers, and soaring three-part vocal harmonies have captivated audiences for over 30 years.

Registration is required for all ages 2 and above.
