Events on Central

Felix Y Los Gatos brings their Latin-rooted sound to Sawmill Market's indoor food hall stage, running from 8 to 10 p.m. on a Sunday night. Sawmill Market's open layout means...

Three bailaores, a cantaora, and a guitarrista perform live tablao flamenco in the intimate sala inside Hotel Albuquerque, a setting that puts the footwork close enough that you feel it in your chest. This is a serious production with serious people: Noelle Encinias has been one of the more respected names in New Mexico flamenco...

Original collections from New Mexico designers hit the runway inside the Lobo Theater's 1938 Art Deco house, with the audience casting the votes that decide both the Designer Award and the Model Award.

Triple-A baseball on Central Avenue, where the Isotopes face the Houston Astros affiliate Space Cowboys in a late-summer weeknight game. Isotopes Park sits right on the Route 66 corridor and...
