The 4th Annual Tejano Music Festival will occur on Saturday, March 5, 2022, from 5 pm to 11 pm at the new Cathedral City Community Amphitheater located at 68526 Avenida Lalo Guerrero in Cathedral City. The late Lalo Guerrero was inducted into the Tejano Music Hall of Fame in 1992, so it seems fitting to have such an event on a street named after him.
This year’s festival will feature Tejano Legend Ram Herrera as well as Tejano Highway 281, Xplosion, and local Tejano favorite Chalito Zapata y Los Traviesos thanks to producers Tejano PowerHouse Entertainment and Diaz Enterprises.
Reserved tables for eight people are available for purchase at www.TejanoMusicFest.com. VIP Tables for eight are $160 (comes to $20 per person) and Tejano Tables for Eight are $140 (comes to $17.50 per person). These tables are going fast, so do not wait.
If you are coming from outside of the Coachella Valley, it is important to book your hotel accommodations now as this festival will occur during “season” and hotel rooms are going fast. Here is a listing of hotels in Cathedral City: https://www.tejanomusicfest.com/local-hotels/
Tejano music brings together various forms of folk and popular music originating among the Mexican-American populations of Texas. It has the essence of both English and Spanish lyrics and a mix of pop, country and polka music.
Besides the music and dance, attendees will have an opportunity to enjoy Tejano-inspired food and beverages, and shop from local merchandisers.
The festival offers a limited number of tickets for reserved tables for those who want a guaranteed seat between dances. Reserved tables are not necessary as the music festival is a free event being offered by the City of Cathedral City. For those not purchasing a reserved table, there will be areas for you to bring a lawn chair or blanket to sit in the Conjunto section.
