Illapu arrives in Arequipa on November 11 to offer a concert and celebrate its 50-year history

The ‘White City’ dresses up this November 11 to receive the long-awaited visit from Illapulegendary Chilean band that has been celebrating its 50 years of uninterrupted career, for which they will offer an expected and very intimate show at the Municipal Theater of Arequipa.

Founded by the Márquez brothers in 1971, this group from the city of Antofagasta is born from the ancestral roots of the Andean world. They have released nearly 30 albums, including new labels, compilations or live recordings.

Currently, Illapu is made up of Roberto Márquez, José Miguel Márquez, Cristian Márquez, Carlos Elgueta, José Luis Contreras, Luis Alfredo Ulloa and Sidney Fernandes. It is important to point out that the name of the group comes from the Quechua language and means “lightning”.

As recalled, In their first albums they mark their journey in search of instruments, melodies and lyrics that are directly related to the Andean culture. Precisely, that is the seal that has characterized them for decades, where they assume the commitment to activate a very strong vibe in the hearts of different generations.

Without a doubt, this will be a reunion awaited by thousands of fans from Arequipa, in an unforgettable night that will be full of songs, feelings and history. Clandestine Productions and Festiautor, promoters in charge of the show, have reported that Tickets for this show can be purchased at the theater box office or directly by calling 977 658 014.
