Grupero Museum: It is a singular space in which valuable objects from the idols of the grupera wave, a music style that appeared in the 1960s and is nowadays one of the most popular rhythms in Mexico, are kept and where homage is paid to those who created it.
Grupera music is a fusion of genres and styles that range from northern Mexican music, the music of the Pacific Coast and the rancheras, up to cumbia, rock and bolero.
Fans will find music instruments, outfits, vinyl covers, photographs and magazines related to this music genre in this grupero temple.
The most valuable objects are undoubtedly the gold record gotten by Carlos y Jose for their hit El Chubasco, and the prize Cerro de la Silla granted to the group Bronco for being the most economically successful.
Amongst the outfits, that used by Ramiro Delgado in the farewell concert performed at the Aztec Stadium, in the City of Mexico, stands out. The garment used by Jose Hernandez, of the group Tigres del Norte for the cover of their production called Jefe de Jefes is also on exhibition.
