Celebrating its Sweet 16 anniversary through September 2
Compiled by the El Reportero‘s staff
A favorite at the Redwood City Salsa Festival, “Edgardo & Candela” returns to combine dancing styles like Mambo, Cha-Cha-Chá, Merengue, Bolero, Bachata, Timba, Cumbia and much more. A great audience communicator and seasoned performer, Edgardo will assure that everyone is entertained while he mixes singing tunes by classic legends and the real treat: Edgardo’s original music, presenting him as a poetic lyricist and accomplished writer.
With top-quality local and national musical performers — from rock and reggae, to Salsa and much more— music fans of all ages will be thrilled to discover and enjoy the most popular summer concert series on the Peninsula! Redwood City is well known for its events, but Friday night’s Music on the Square is one of the most treasured nights of summer.
