Join us for The RED Concert, an evening of powerful music and meaningful purpose. Featuring Ruta Verbena — an eight-piece Latin powerhouse — this high-energy performance brings the rhythms and melodies of South America to life in a way that invites movement, connection, and celebration.
This concert is more than an event. It is a benefit supporting HIV awareness and care programs locally and globally, including the Center for Health and Hope and TIHAN (Tucson Interfaith HIV/AIDS Network). Your presence helps strengthen compassion in action.
Guests are encouraged to arrive early between 4:00–4:30 PM for closer parking, to secure seating, and to order food and drinks before the show begins. The venue offers outdoor seating with shade and fire pits, and the event will proceed rain or shine.
