POSTPONED: Los Chicos del 512: The Selena Experience

March 21, 2020 @ 8:00 pm

Unfortunately due to a cancellation of another show, the band will not be traveling to Colorado. We are working to reschedule this show!

The members of Los Chicos del 512 came together for one reason. That one reason is to bring the magic of Selena to old and new fans worldwide. Since the group’s inception in 2014, they have been successfully doing just that.
Having sold out venue after venue and with a most recent performance for the Chicago Bulls and the Marines Okinawa, Japan, Los Chicos del 512 are on fire!
This show is a mind-blowing experience and the closest one can get to a live Selena concert. Simply, the best Selena tribute production out there!
These musicians came together and orchestrated an extraordinary show that will have you back to 1995 within seconds of their first song. Los Chicos del 512 will bring you to the finest Selena tribute that you can possibly imagine. Now, get ready to sing, dance, and relive Selena!
