I am thrilled to announce that Mamiverse will be at People En Español Festival presented by Target. This is an event celebrating Hispanic entertainment, culture and community in San Antonio, Texas, on September 1-2. I am honored and excited to attend the first of such events, that celebrates Latino contribution to art, lifestyle and culture. As a Latina mom, I recognize the importance of supporting ventures that bring us together while putting Latino talent in the spotlight.
The Festival will include music performances by the biggest names in Latino music: Daddy Yankee, Luis Miguel, Prince Royce, Tito “El Bambino,” Larry Hernandez, 3BallMTY, and Banda Los Recoditos. To celebrate the pride and passion of the Hispanic community, our editorial team at Mamiverse has developed a series of articles and Twitter parties devoted to beauty & style, music and culture that we hope will inform, inspire and engage our readers and Festival attendees.
