Experience the roots of Colombias Pacific Coast (Cumbia, Currulao) with the legendary Nidia Góngora, La Diabla, Strange Bouquets & Mafondo Witness a landmark cultural moment as Grammy Award–nominee Nidia Góngora, the legendary voice of Colombia’s Pacific coast, makes her long-awaited San Diego debut. Revered as one of the most important carriers of Pacific ancestral music, Nidia has spent more than two decades bridging the traditional sounds of Timbiquí with global genres, collaborating with acclaimed artists such as Quantic, Onda Tropica, Feid, and poet Shirley Campbell Barr. Her artistry has been celebrated on international stages and in major outlets including The Guardian, El Espectador, and The New York Times, solidifying her status as a modern icon of roots music. Now, for the first time in San Diego, audiences will experience the power, depth, and spiritual resonance of her voice live—an artist whose work is both a preservation of cultural memory and a bold evolution of Pacific heritage. She is joined by an electrifying lineup that turns the night into a borderlands celebration: the fiery cumbia of La Diabla, and a late-night sonic dance party from DJ's Strange Bouquets, and Mafondo. This is more than a concert, it’s a historic gathering of tradition, innovation, and community. A rare opportunity to welcome one of the world’s most influential artists to San Diego for the very first time. Don’t miss it.
