What to expect

If you’re looking for music, joy, dancing and Caribbean sounds, this immersive experience is for you. Here you will be an artist - at least for a day - you will play an instrument, dance or sing in a group guided by more than 30 children and young people who are part of the Band of Baranoa, the musical ‘jewel’ of the Atlantic department.

To start you will visit the headquarters of the Banda de Baranoa Foundation - located 35 minutes from Barranquilla - to know the trumpet, sax, percussion, cymbals, among other instruments that sing our most characteristic rhythms.

Later on, you will learn to perform a traditional Colombian song from children musicians and teachers of the school.

Finally, you will join with a typical song to the musical ensemble that will show you how the Colombian Caribbean sounds to live it, not only as a spectator, but also as an artist from our region.
