PIÑA is back and is moving to La Cita Bar!

Hola, familia!  La Junta crew here, writing this to you with so much excitement!!  We’ve all been waiting with unwavering hope, and now our City of Angels is ever so close to a full reopening after fifteen months of the COVID lockdown…so we have an announcement:

IT’S TIME TO MOVE!!  

This has a double meaning for us.  1) We can’t wait to see you and get down on the dance floor with you all, and 2) PIÑA has a new home at La Cita Bar!!
You read that right.  PIÑA moves to DTLA’s most renowned and beloved neighborhood bar, La Cita, on Friday, June 18th!  The evening features La Junta Sound System (deejays degruvme, Yukicito & Glenn Red) playing Cumbia, Salsa, Reggaeton, Samba, and other Afro-Latin rhythms, plus a live performance by the always fun and frenetic LA rockeros, Spaghetti Cumbia!

Gather your dance floor fam, make a plan and we’ll see you on the 18th!

PIÑA 2020

Hi Everyone!

La Junta here, just checkin’ back in after that wild one at our last Friday night romp at PIÑA! Y’all brought the full moon fever down the steps, around the bar and onto the dance floors…whew! Thank you for bringing that fun energy to our first PIÑA of the year. The pictures are here! Please like, tag and share ’em with your peeps far and wide.

Much love and gratitude to our Coco Lounge guest, QUILO, for bringing so much fire with his deejay set…looking forward to having him back soon! Mark your calendars and make plans to be at the next PIÑA on Friday February 14th……..we’ve got something special cookin’ because it’s Valentine’s Day <3

PIÑA NYE 2020 PHOTOS ARE UP…

RAWWWRRRR!!!

That’s the sound we heard throughout the club as the clock struck midnight and the confetti cannons popped, hurling all of us into the roaring (20)20’s!  La Junta can’t thank you enough for choosing to spend that kind of momentous occasion with us.  Hopefully we delivered the NYE experience you were hoping to have.  Based on all the smiles and the energy in our photo recap, we’d like to think so.  The pictures are here!

Much love and respect to our Boombox familia–Inka OneBen Diggin’ & Analog–for their bumpin’ takeover of the Coco Lounge bar.  We knew they’d have that room rockin’ as hard as the main room with their brand of hip-hop, beats & breaks…the perfect complement to La Junta’s afro-latin vibes.  Gratitude to El Dorado bar for hustling to serve everyone their libations and providing the beautiful spot for the revelry to happen.  Happy New Year, everyone…and we’ll see you again on Friday January 10th for the next PIÑA!

Piña 2 year anniversary photos are up!

Thank you, Los Angeles!

We had such a blast with everyone at last Friday’s PIÑA 2 Year Anniversary!  We’re overjoyed at how the event has evolved into one of DTLA’s sureshot events for a Friday night!  We sincerely want to thank each and every of you who’ve ever come out to El Dorado for our event and tore it up on the dance floor and sipped at the bar.  You are everything.

Special thanks to the great teams from K-LOVE 107.5 FM and JACK DANIELS ® for their support of our anniversary event.  We hope to do even more fantastic events with them in the future!  And of course, much love and gratitude to Todd Simon and Fred Locks for bringing their stellar musicianship and great energy to the celebration…we cannot wait to have them back soon!!

But without further ado, the photos are up!  Check them out and be sure to like, tag and share them with your peeps!  We’ll see at our next event at our 2019 Summer Kickoff Brunch on Sunday May 26 and/or at the June episode of PIÑA on Friday June 14th!
