San Pancho Music Festival to Celebrate its 18th Anniversary

The San Pancho Music Festival is celebrating its 18th year this February, running from Friday, Feb. 23rd through Sunday, Feb. 25th, 2018 in San Pancho, Nayarit. Over its many editions festival has become a valuable cultural event in Riviera Nayarit.  It continuously attracts new tourists to the area, and has a growing population of followers.  Without doubt the Festival has contributed significantly to the town’s official designation as the Cultural Center of Nayarit.   

What was once a tiny homegrown music festival in a resident’s backyard, the San Pancho Music Festival has now grown to become one of the premiere music events in the region! Now in its 18th year, the Festival continues to be free to the public through the generosity of the artists, volunteers, donations from the public, and a few friends of the festival. With two stages the festival is able to switch between groups so that there is a minimal amount of waiting time between acts, compared to most other music festival formats.

As in past years, the Festival not only features many of the talented performers from our region, but it also includes artists from Mexico, the United States, Canada, and Latin America. With the variety of performers onboard for this year, we are confident that there will be something for everyone.

The Festival always takes place the last weekend in February. This year those dates are Friday, Feb 23rd, Saturday, Feb 24th, and Sunday, Feb. 25th. The music starts at 5pm and goes until 11pm each night. A schedule of acts performing each night will soon be published on the festival’s website, as well as on our Facebook page.  Please visit the website for more details on the performers, and their performance times.

El Festival tiene lugar en la Plaza del Sol, frente a la iglesia de San Pancho. Habrá venta de alimentos deliciosos en el lugar, opciones de bebidas alcohólicas y no alcohólicas, así como una selección de artes y artesanías para apreciar y admirar indudablemente. Tendremos sillas disponibles, sin embargo, serán ofrecidas por orden de llegada, por lo que es muy recomendable traer tus propias sillas para que disfrutes con tu familia y amigos de una noche de buena música y diversión.
