Lulada Club

The Mansfield Downtown Partnership is pleased to announce the headliner for its 23rd Annual Celebrate Mansfield Festival will be Lulada Club!

Lulada Club is a groundbreaking all-women salsa ensemble redefining the golden era of Latin  dance music with a fresh, soulful edge. Founded by Andrea Chavarro and Katherine Ocampo, two Colombian American musicians, the group channels the power of visibility and representation into every performance — celebrating Latin heritage while reimagining it for a new generation. Since its inception, Lulada Club has electrified stages at iconic institutions including Lincoln Center and the Smithsonian Museum, where they honored Celia Cruz during the unveiling of her U.S. quarter. Their recognition as the first all-women salsa band featured in Rolling Stone marked a historic milestone for gender equity in Latin music.

Lulada Club will perform from 6:30 PM to 8:00 PM on the stage of the Jeffrey P. Ossen Family Foundation Pavilion on Betsy Paterson Square in Downtown Storrs.

Additional performances of music, dance, magic, and puppetry are scheduled throughout the day and throughout the Festival site. A full schedule will be available at downtownstorrsfestival.org

Visitors are invited to bring a blanket or lawn chair. Refreshments will be available for purchase from the Festival food booths and at Downtown Storrs restaurants.

Please note: Alcohol is prohibited on the Square. Smoking and vaping are also prohibited on the Square.

The Celebrate Mansfield Festival is free and open to everyone and is open from 2:00 PM to 8:00 PM.
