After a very successful First Annual Bay Area Latin Jazz Festival (held on August 17, 2019 at Rowell Ranch in Castro Valley), Montuno Productions is happy to announce a new festival-related concert series, starting with our upcoming St. Valentine's Day Concert, a celebration of love and friendship.
The event, planned as a classy dance concert reminiscent of Old San Juan's Casa de España concerts in the '70s and '80s, will feature three great salsa bands, including Edgardo & Candela, Latin Rhythm Boys, and Montuno Productions All-Stars Salsa Orchestra (with multiple Grammy Award recipients having won over 20 awards among them for past projects).
And what better place for a concert like this than the majestic 7,500 square-foot California Ballroom, featuring high gold leaf ceiling, a large stage with curtains and spotlights, and a sizable and smooth dance floor. "An invitation to this impressive Art Deco landmark — just a few blocks from picturesque Lake Merritt — is an occasion to look forward to."
Attendees will be able to order Puerto Rican food: Pernil (pork) or pollo (chicken) with arroz con gandules (Puerto Rican-style food), salad, and French bread.

General Admission - $25.00
