Disco Al Fresco will turn Sunken Garden Theater into a cumbia rave this Saturday after the organizers’ CumbiaWeen celebration was rained out on Halloween weekend.
Though Halloween is in the rearview mirror, the party still promises to be a “spooky cumbia costume party under the stars,” according to the Disco Al Fresco crew.
The dance party will take place this Saturday from 5-9 p.m. at Sunken Garden Theater. Tickets are $15 for adults and can be purchased on the Disco Al Fresco website. Kids 15 and under are free.
The event will also feature food trucks, a night market and a costume contest with a $250 prize for best costume.
“CumbiaWeen: Back from the Dead” is a collaboration between the Brackenridge Park Conservancy and the minds behind SoundCream Airstream, the rolling disco party that formerly took over the Pearl complex for select events.
The event is also BYOB, with coolers and picnics welcome (just no glass). Costumes are not required but highly encouraged.
“Rain tried to stop CumbiaWeen, but CUMBIA NEVER DIES!” organizers said in an Instagram post promoting the rescheduled date. “And your costume deserves a spin around the Cumbia circle.”
