Fifth Annual Ritmo Doral Festival Goes Virtual on March 20th
Doral, FL – The City of Doral in partnership with The Rhythm Foundation will present the fifth annual Ritmo Doral on March 20th as a live-stream event from the Doral Yard’s Main Street stage in Downtown Doral. The free, family-friendly concert promotes the community's cultural, diplomatic, business and tourism ties with sister cities.
We invite the community to tune in from the comfort and safety of their homes via:

The show kicks off with TAMBOKA a group of free-spirited individuals who play Latin grooves infused with a dose of gypsy jazz swing. Immediately following is SONLOKOS with a fresh sound that fuses Afro Cuban Son, timba and traditional Cuban rhythms with elements of hip-hop and electronic music. The septet plays Latin hits as well as songs from their new release, Se Te Va La Guagua (The Bus Is Leaving Without You) - all guaranteed to get listeners dancing! Closing out the concert is ENSEMBLE 7/4, a group that has toured worldwide, and collaborated with a who’s who in orchestral music, world music, jazz and folk scenes and beyond. The group was born out of the friendship of seven young members of El Sistema (Venezuela’s legendary national youth music program), who came together to extend the boundaries of academic music to include Venezuelan folk music, Latin American music and jazz.
