Riviera Nayarit, Mexico - The Bahía de Banderas Municipal Folkloric Ballet "Tintoc" will be performing at the 5th Annual Taste of Lo de Marcos set to be held on Sunday, February 18th in Lo de Marcos, Nayarit.

Founded in 1999, the group has grown and currently has a total of 45 members, ranging from children up to age thirteen and young people up to twenty-two years of age, who together form the Ballet Folklorico representing the municipality of Bahía de Banderas.

The group has performed in many of the towns within the Municipality of Bahía de Banderas and on an International level sharing the Culture of Mexico, its musical notes and dances that fill our hearts. The group brings the National Cultural Heritage of Mexico everywhere they visit.

Lo de Marcos and Banderas Bay, this is for you!

Bringing the Ballet to Lo de Marcos for the Taste of Lo de Marcos would not have been possible without the effort and dedication put in by event organizer Armando Contreras. The entertainment kicks off at 3:30 with live music by the talented Nina and Humberto of Caravane, followed by the Ballet Tintoc dance performance, and then swinging to the Oldies by DJ Javier until closing.

In addition to the music, the event features food from restaurants located in the Pueblo of Lo De Marcos. The meals and tastes range from casual fare to Five Star Dining. For the shopper in all of us, there will also be several Artisanal Booths with unique handcrafted items and jewelry for purchase scattered throughout the event.

Admission to the event is free, and the 'tastes' are reasonably priced. If you wish you reserve a seat for the entertainment, that can be done by emailing galvanrealestate4(at)gmail.com. The cost for reserved seating is $100.00 pesos each.

Taste of Lo De Marcos is organized and promoted by Armando Contreras and his team at Galvan Real Estate and Services to raise funds for two non-profit groups in this coastal town: The Amigos de Lo de Marcos and the Citizens Action Committee. So come on out to Lo de Marcos this Sunday from 3:00 to 8:00 pm to support this worthy cause and have a whole lot of fun at the same.

"This promises to be a fun filled and entertaining event, so mark the date, February 18th, on your calendar to make sure you don't miss it," Armando Contreras said.
