The multi-day music festival celebrates the culture and history of Latin music and utilizes the mariachi music platform to promote higher education and cultural preservation among Hispanic youth.

The festival hosts a concert with world-renowned musicians and winners of the highly competitive National group and vocal competitions. The UTRGV Mariachi Aztlán has been selected as Workshop Clinicians for the more than 1,000 students who will be attending. 

The participation of the UTRGV Mariachi Aztlán is partially supported by the South Texas Music & Cultural Arts Foundation (STMCAF) and the UTRGV College of Fine Arts.
