A Week of Magic Awaits at the Chacala Music Festival Team Angels - Chacala Village Music Fest
March 5, 2014

Something Magical & Musical is happening at the heart of Riviera Nayarit, in the crown jewel village of Chacala-by-the-sea … a seven day & night celebration of music … a festival … an unforgettable bringin’-in-the-spring fling!

One night in March, 2012 at a Friday night roof-top reception, a group of attendees began to break out in song, regaling the crowd spontaneously with music from Broadway Musicals. The group began to realize that Chacala might just be a perfect place to celebrate music and other arts: thus was borne the Chacala Village Music Festival.

This year, the Chacala Village Music Festival will take place from March 24 to 30, 2014.

Entertainment includes a performance of Bedazzled Broadway, the Banderas Bay Jazz Allstars, Fire Dancing on the Beach, Time 2 Play, Compostella Chorus, and so much more including children's programs and the margarita contest. To see the current line-up of entertainment and venues, visit Chacala Music Festival (the Schedule is under the "Festival" tab).

The mission of the organizers of the Festival is to provide an annual celebration of wide ranging musical performances for residents and guests of Chacala and nearby communities and position Chacala as a traditional Mexican village with high quality artistic values.

The Festival supplements existing musical education for the youth in the community with additional education and performance opportunities to stimulate, develop and nurture musical and other artistic talent in the community.

Profits from the Festival go to Cambiando Vidas (Changing Lives) for local children educational needs.  For more information, visit Cambiando Vidas Mexico.

Chacala is a picturesque beach-town set in small cove on the Pacific coast of Mexico in the State of Nayarit.

It is located about 100 kilometers (62 mi) north of Puerto Vallarta. The name means “where there are shrimp” in Nahuatl, and is part of the coastline known as the Riviera Nayarit.  The population consists of approximately 300 full-time residents, but can swell to over 1000 during Mexico’s most popular vacation periods such as Semana Santa, (Easter Week) and Christmas.

Chacala is known for its physical beauty, unhurried lifestyle, and friendly people.

For more information or if you would like to be a Festival sponsor, please email Chacala Village. Sponsorships are available in Lodging, Restaurant, and other categories.

We hope to see you in Chacala for a week of magical music for a great cause.
