SOMOS ABQ Festival: A Love Letter to Albuquerque

SOMOS ABQ 2025: A Love Letter to Albuquerque

On Saturday May 10, the creative community of Burque will transform the National Hispanic Cultural Center into a living, breathing work of art—a place where music, creativity, and culture collide in a kaleidoscope of color, movement, sound and connection.

By day, immerse yourself in large-scale art installations, hands-on maker activities, and interactive experiences that invite all ages to create, play, and explore. Wander through a world of sculpture, movement, and performance where artists and community collectives turn the city into their canvas—made possible through the generous support of the City of Albuquerque.

Savor Albuquerque with local food, craft beverages, and bold flavors, from traditional New Mexican bites to creative culinary twists. Explore a curated market of artisans and makers, showcasing handcrafted goods, art, and unique treasures from local makers.

As the Sandias glow pink in the evening light, Shannon and the Clams take the stage, filling the air with golden-hour melodies. Then, as night settles in, the energy surges—Chromeo’s DJ Set and electrifying beats turn the NHCC campus into an open-air dance floor, a moonlit party beneath the stars where art and music move together as one.

Come for the music, the murals, the movement—stay for the magic. SOMOS ABQ is more than a festival; it’s a love letter to Albuquerque’s creative soul. Will you join us to write this story?
