What information do you require about a venue?

We need to know the exact direction of the event location. If it is a restaurant or hotel, the customer should first contact the venue to ensure respective authorization for MARIACHI to perform.

Performance Info

What are your typical setup and performance times?

It depends on the chosen modality. For serenades and musical surprises we normally arrive 20 mins before the performance to set up. We don't mind playing a little more or a little less than the time advertised in the Modalities, but we have found that these set times are best suited for us and our audience, in each situation.


Are you happy to perform outside?

Yes, in indoor or outdoor spaces, including street entertainment.


Do the clients have a say in what you play or is it a set repertoire list only?

We can learn specific songs before the event but we usually limit this to 2 songs. The clients are welcome to pick a set list from our repertoire or let us choose the music for them.


How do previous clients most commonly describe your performances?

Customers are truly surprised by the quality of music and entertainment provided by MARIACHI. The group is not restricted to a musical performance but actively engages the audience in participating in the party.
It usually leaves people speechless!
