NM United Soccer at Isotopes Park
Isotopes ParkNew Mexico United returns to Isotopes Park for a USL Championship home match against Monterey Bay FC, a California club that has been competitive enough to make this a meaningful late-season fixture.

Kimo TheatreThe Last Poets, the New York collective whose 1960s and 70s recordings laid foundational groundwork for hip-hop, perform at the KiMo with Terminator X on the decks and Albuquerque's own former poet laureate Hakim Bellamy holding it together as host.
