After a massive 2025 touring year around Australia and a well deserved break from the stage while working on new material for their next release, La Descarga — Australia’s tropical music powerhouse — is back to bring the fiesta to Melbourne! Presented by Bodriggy, this special one-off celebration explodes with Afro Colombian rhythms, psychedelic tropical grooves, carnival energy and dancefloor heat. Expect hypnotic gaita flutes, deep basslines, blazing percussion, cumbia, salsa, dub and tropical psychedelia in a joyful explosion of colour and sound. Known for their wildly interactive live shows, La Descarga transforms every performance into a tropical street party filled with dancing, movement and collective celebration. From limbo contests and singalongs to irresistible rhythms that demand you move, this is more than a gig — it's a fiesta. This performance will also be dedicated to the life and legacy of Totó la Momposina, one of Colombia's most beloved cultural icons and a profound influence on La Descarga's music. The band will pay tribute by performing some of her songs and celebrating the extraordinary contribution she made to Colombian folklore, culture and music around the world. Join us for an unforgettable afternoon of music, tropical energy and Colombian inspired celebration at Bodriggy. Sunday 14 June 4pm 245 Johnston St, Abbotsford FREE ENTRY @ladescargaband
