The Broadway League and Latin Trends will host the first official VIVA Broadway community event, VIVA Broadway Fiesta, a pre-theatre party on January 29th from 5:00pm to 7:00pm at the legendary Copacabana on West 47th Street in Times Square, in association with Broadway Week. VIVA Broadway Advisory Board members and Broadway talent will celebrate this event with music, dancing, drinks provided by Chivas Regal and complimentary hors d'hoeuvres provided by a local restaurant. This free event is open to theatregoers who purchase tickets to Broadway Week, an NYC & Company program. Broadway Week is from January 22nd to February 7th, when 2-for-1 theatre tickets to participating Broadway shows are available by visiting nycgo.com/broadwayweek. Guests must RSVP to events@broadway.org and bring their show ticket for access to the party. The Broadway League created Viva Broadway, a new audience development partnership with the Hispanic community, to help bridge the world of Broadway with Latino audiences around the country. The long-term initiative aims to increase awareness about Broadway while culturally enriching lives, bringing families together, and building new careers in the theatre. A National Advisory Board of industry and cultural notables has been formed to help strategize and spread the word about all that Broadway has to offer this growing and vibrant community. La Mega 97.9's DJ Aneudy will be there live mixing his signature blend of salsa and meringue. Viva Broadway Fiesta is presented by The Broadway League and LatinTRENDS.
