Puerta Abierta Summer Music Series
Puerta Abierta is a new series from World Cafe Live centering and celebrating the diasporic sounds of Latinx culture. This summer, we’ll welcome artists across a variety of genres and regions to our stages for a mix of live music and educational events.

Puerta Abierta focuses on programs that reflect the diverse communities found in Philadelphia. From May through August, we'll host performances by emerging and established artists in both the Lounge and Music Hall at World Cafe Live. Each night will feature a unique food & drink menu from Executive Chef Rob Cottman influenced by specific Latinx culinary traditions. We'll also bring in new teaching artists to develop and premiere a Bridge Session exploring Latinx music and culture, further expanding our free music education programs. This is just the beginning, so stay tuned for more announcements!

We’re excited to create new connections within our vibrant city. Come join us – our doors are open!

This project is supported in part by the National Endowment for the Arts and The Presser Foundation.

El Sesenta Tango Duo 

An encounter at an asado in Mataderos neighborhood of Buenos Aires led to a formation of the bandoneón-guitar duo by Shinjoo Cho and Alejo de los Reyes. Now based in Philadelphia and NY, El Sesenta brings to life the intimate conversations of the urban Buenos Aires and sprawling Argentina.
