The Ballet Folklorico Mexico de Los Hermanos Avila has entertained both child and adult audiences for more than 30 years. Founded in 1972, by Jesus and Carmen Avila (brother and sister), a second and third generation of Avilas soon joined the group. The Ballet Folklorico Mexico has been internationally recognized by United States and Mexican officials and named one of the most exciting groups presenting regional and traditional dances from Mexico. While showcasing a variety of regions such as Guerrero, Jalisco, Michoacan, Sonora, Tabasco, Tamaulipas, Veracruz, and Yucutan, you will discover the fascinating folklore of the Aztecs, the romantic lyrics and poetry of the Mariachi’s, and the heroes of the Mexican Revolution. The Ballet Folklorico Mexico weaves foot-tapping fun into the history of Mexico.
