COMPAÑÍA TITULAR DE DANZA FOLKLÓRICA DE LA UANL

The «Compañía Titular de Danza Folklórica de la UANL» comes from the region of Nuevo León in the North of the country. It will present dances with European influences, where the costume of the men comes from the Apache tribes who took refuge in this region after being driven from the upper part of the continent. We will also admire the folklore of Jalisco, the huge multicoloured dresses of the dancers and the famous Mariachis, who have made the country famous throughout the world. The Veracruz region, its immaculate white costumes and the crystalline sound of the harp will also be presented.

During the RFI, the artists from Mexico will take part in the following events:
