Spend your Labor Day weekend with the Long Center and the Grammy Award winning Austin-based Latin funk orchestra, Grupo Fantasma!
The first in a series of FREE CONCERTS on the Long Center City Terrace, bring the family and enjoy the view from Austin's Creative Home.
Grupo Fantasma are widely known for their energetic live shows, which NPR declares “seamless…whenever and wherever they’re on stage.” The 10-piece orchestra has received praise from The Wall Street Journal, La Opinion, and by USA Today, calling the band “Latin-funk masters.”
Brought together by Austin’s bustling music scene, Grupo Fantasma formed in 2000 and is comprised of musicians with Latin American and Texan backgrounds. Praised as one of the most important independent acts in the Latin genre, the band draws from influences including cumbia, salsa, old-school funk, reggae and more.
The Terrace Concert Series will take place on the Long Center City Terrace located at 701 West Riverside Drive at South First Street. Patrons may bring food, lawn chairs and blankets but are not allowed to bring alcoholic beverages. Pets are not allowed. Food and drink will be available for purchase at the event. Parking will be available in the Palmer Event Center garage for $7.
