Third Annual Voz de la Paloma: Celebrate Beatríz Llamas' Enduring Legacy

Third Annual Voz de la Paloma: Celebrate Beatríz Llamas' Enduring Legacy

Join us on Saturday, August 2, 2025, at 5 PM at the Palo Alto College Performing Arts Building for the 3rd Annual "Voz de la Paloma: Un Homenaje a la Incomparable Paloma del Norte"!

Esperanza is coming together with the Lopez children to honor the vibrant spirit and profound influence of the legendary cantante, Beatríz Llamas, "La Paloma del Norte." Though she passed in 2023, her impact on Tejano music continues to inspire generations!

This special evening celebrates her roots in local talent competitions by offering girls and women (ages 10+) a unique platform to shine, just as Beatríz did in the 1950s at the Alameda, Nacional, and Zaragoza theaters.

The night is packed with a vibrant vocal competition showcasing diverse talent, a captivating performance by Palo Alto College Mariachi Palomin and the exciting announcement and awarding of prizes to our competition winners!

"Voz de la Paloma" is a beautiful celebration of established legacy and emerging talent, ensuring our rich musical traditions thrive.

Doors open at 4:30 PM
The Vocal competition starts at 5 PM

The event is FREE! Please RSVP at https:www.esperanza.eventbrite.com
