Fandango x Tekstin Taco

The iconic Fandango series is back at Bar Tÿpo, featuring two special guest musicians and luthiers visiting Helsinki straight from the heart of the Son Jarocho scene in Veracruz, Mexico. 

This time, Nordic and Mesoamerican flavours come together in a menu crafted by the guest chef, Mara Lozano together with K’u’um’s Amado Peña. You’ll be able to taste a blend of traditions prioritizing local Finnish gardens and reimagined staples of both traditions.

The day will once again culminate in a Fandango led by Jaranas del Norte: a celebration where everyone is welcome to take part by playing, singing, dancing, or by simply being present!

In the afternoon, a Son Jarocho masterclass will be led by José Mariano and Julio César Corro. In the workshop, you will learn about the rhythm and structure of son jarocho, as well as the cultural background of the tradition. 

Julio César Corro is a master luthier, folk musician, and cultural educator from Tlacotalpan, Veracruz. In 2022, he received the Masters of Mexico’s Artisanal Heritage Award. 

Dj Mitotl’s raw magnetic energy will blaze through electrocumbia, Latin beats and techno music on Tÿpo’s dance floor until two+ in the morning.
