Mariachi Real De Mexico Tickets

Based in New York City and founded in 1991 by Ramon Ponce Sr. and Ramon Ponce Jr., Mariachi Real De Mexico is a storied ensemble renowned for its authentic Mexican mariachi sound and its contributions to contemporary Latin music. The group gained global recognition as a Grammy-winning outfit through its involvement in the Tito Puente/Eddie Palmieri project Masterpiece/Obra Maestra, where their performance of the medley Cielito Lindo/La Negra highlighted the ensemble’s vibrant energy and musicianship. In addition to performing, they nurture the next generation of mariachi talents through the Mariachi Academy of New York (MANY), a nonprofit education initiative founded in 2002. Their discography includes the notable Viva Mexico (1999), a staple for fans of traditional mariachi with a modern twist. Each show offers a rich repertoire of classic rancheras, festive sones, and contemporary arrangements that celebrate Mexican heritage while inviting new audiences to the stage.
