Get caught up in the irresistible Latin rhythms and the stories by Colombian Canadian Cristian De La Luna and his band. Special guests the St. Albert Latin Cultural Association, will be there to help get your feet moving and your hips grooving.   

Cristian De La Luna
Cristian de la Luna's pop-Latin-folk music is both contagious and inviting. This versatile artist combines the simplicity of folk storytelling, Caribbean percussion, and the jazzy warmth of brass instruments. Deeply rooted in his Colombian roots, he explores the four corners of his heart through the depth of emotions to the playful naivety of our childhood. Cristian has two albums to his credit, both in Spanish and French. His performances are endearing and captivating.

His most recent record work ¿Qué Pasará? led him to great national recognition. Winner of the Edmonton Music Prize with an amount of $15,000 and the Envol Prize of the French Language Organization in Alberta (Le Rafa), he has catapulted himself to be among the most outstanding artists in the province. He is also nominated for the WCMA's 2023 Awards in the global music category. His migratory journey from Colombia, through Quebec, to finally arrive in Alberta has brought him inspiration in the nostalgia of his harsh exile from Colombia and the excitement of discovering a new land of welcome. 

Bring your own chair or seat. Grab a spot as early as 6:30 p.m.; all shows start at 7 p.m. No tickets required. There will be a pay-to-enter licensed area where alcoholic beverages or snacks can be purchased. Tickets for the licensed area will be $10, including an alcoholic beverage, and $6, including a non-alcoholic beverage and snack.
