im just curious cause im planning on going this year even though im no longer in a mariachi group. so hows the scene over there? any info is greatly appreciated!!!!

Answer 1

I have...!! It's amazing, and the most fun anyone could have!!

I went about 4 yrs ago to visit family over there and to attend my cousins 15añera. Well, there was lots of food being sold like 2 mariachis, and like 3 bands. There were also these guys with castle formed fireworks running around everywhere. At first it was scary, but then i got used to the scene!! the best part was that it was all in front of my grandma's & great-grandma's houses, so we just sat in the front yards and watched the whole thing comfortably. Also, in front of my grandmas' houses there is a plaza and that's where it all mostly took place. Like I said lots of fun!!! Please take me....lolz!!!

Answer 2

nope, but i have been mardi gras!!

Answer 3

i have, by mistake actually.  it was amazing and fun and a great way to see the culture but unless you really REALLY love the music, find a hotel a few blocks away.  i layed there awake every night till about four listening to mariachi blasting right out side my window

Answer 4

No but it sounds like you will have a nice time there.  have fun!
