The Dallas Stars will host Noche Mexicana, presented by Ford and your North Texas Ford Dealers, on Tuesday, March 10 as they battle the Vegas Golden Knights. This marks the fifth consecutive year that the Stars will celebrate Mexican American culture at American Airlines Center.

Noche Mexicana will begin with a pregame party on PNC Plaza at 5 p.m. that will feature Oak Cliff-based celebrity food truck/taqueria shop Tacos La Gloria, and performances by Monica Saldivar and Mexico 2000 Ballet Folklorico. Monica Saldivar is a multi-award-winning Tejano artist from Grand Prairie, Texas, recognized for her powerful vocals, dynamic stage presence, and heartfelt connection to her audience. She is a 6X Tejano Music Award winner and the current female vocalist of the year. México 2000 Ballet Folklórico was founded in 1997 with a goal of offering quality dance programs to the Dallas area audience. México 2000 Ballet Folklórico and its directors, Alex and Mary Palencia, have trained more than 2,000 dancers and have presented more than 1,200 performances in the last 25 years. In addition, Saldivar will sing the National Anthem for that night’s game and Mexico Ballet Folklorico will be featured as part of the Stars in-game entertainment.
