The Pachanga Latino Music Festival, a Latin-themed music, cultural arts and food festival to be held at Austin's Fiesta Gardens May 21 and 22, revealed its lineup today (Apr. 7). Performers will include Tejano singer Bobby Pulido, Austin funk orchestra Grupo Fantasma featuring salsa star Larry Harlow, Colombian electro-tropical band Bomba Estéreo and San Antonio rockers Girl in a Coma.

The festival, now in its third year, is expanded to two days for the first time. The event will kick off on Friday evening, May 21, with one stage of music and food.

Returning on Saturday for a second year will be Niños Rock Pachanga, the interactive kids festival that will feature an Annie Ray photo booth, Latin-inspired crafts, and a kids stage with performances by Davíd Garza, Alejandro Vallejo and more.
