¡Globalquerque! Festival Announces 2011 Lineup
DePedro, Los Amigos Invisibles, and Luísa Maita to Appear At New Mexico Festival
Marking seven years of successfully mixing the most eclectic lineups from the traditional to the cutting- edge, the legendary to the-up-and-coming, ¡Globalquerque! returns with a bang September 16 & 17, 2011.
The Southwest's biggest world music party - whose attendance grew by nearly 40% last year - will again be held in Albuquerque, New Mexico, at the beautiful National Hispanic Cultural Center (NHCC) along the banks of the Rio Grande River.
¡Globalquerque! is one of America's fastest-growing, most creatively programmed world music festivals, drawing fans from around the region, across the country, and beyond. Each year musical themes and threads arise, and this year "cultural melting pots" are one of the spotlights.
