What’s On?
🎶 Live Music
Kwasi Bruni Big Band We heard there was an incredible band making noise down in the Northern Rivers, so we had to go and check them out for ourselves. They blew us away, and we knew straight away we had to bring them to HOLA Marketta for our Summer Edition! Afro-Cuban jazz and salsa rhythms. You can’t miss this one.
For the first time, Kwasi Bruni Big Band will be taking the HOLA headline spot, bringing their Afro-Cuban jazz, salsa rhythms and big band energy to the stage.
Led by bassist Barry Hill and Colombian pianist Camilo Losada, expect powerful horns, rich percussion and infectious Latin rhythms that'll get you moving. One not to miss!
Karavana Flamenca, We caught these guys while they were touring Australia and couldn't pass up the chance to bring them to HOLA Marketta! We're lucky enough to have Karavana Flamenca joining us for the final date of their tour!
Bringing the sounds of traditional flamenco, gypsy rumba and Latin music, these guys deliver fiery Spanish guitars, driving percussion and soulful vocals.
DJ Dabito
If you've been to HOLA before, you know DJ Dabito, and you know it wouldn't be a party without him! Our very own house DJ is back to bring all the bangers and keep the dance floor moving until the very end. He's closing the night, so you know what to do.
Dj Juancarlexxx
Making noise down in Coolangatta, we came across DJ Juancarlexx, bringing some of the best Latin house in town, mixed with a few classics you know and love. Our Venezuelan selector is joining HOLA for the first time, and we're pretty excited to have him on board
