Biography:In 2022 the San Miguel de Allende World Music Festival (San Miguel de Allende World Music Festival) is born in San Miguel de Allende, a perfect festival for San Miguel due to the nature of the city; cosmopolitan, with a vast offer of tourist services, a city visited by tourists from different states of the Mexican Republic, as well as different countries around the world. San Miguel de Allende has such diverse and interesting attractions that make it a favorite destination among travelers; its hot springs, the pyramids of Cañada de la Virgen, the architecture of the city, the climate, the proximity to other equally interesting and beautiful cities such as Querétaro, San Luis Potosí, Mineral de Pozos, among others. Regarding the gastronomic and service offering, the city of San Miguel also has a wide spectrum of top-level restaurants and hotels, from simple and accessible places to super luxury spaces.
The San Miguel de Allende World Music Festival arises as a result of the transit of artists through the city, artists from both the interior of the Republic and from various parts of the world; of the interaction with local artists and the need to express and present diverse musical projects; fusions between genres that result in a unique and unrepeatable sound. Just as San Miguel de Allende is a mix of cultures, colors and flavors that coexist and interact with each other on a daily basis, giving rise to an atmosphere that can only be found in this incredible city.
