What People are SAYING

"You get to share a fun space with a group of people who want to be part of a greater community. You often run into the same people each time, but you also meet new people. Last year I met someone new to the area, but we hit it off and he ended up helping me organize a field trip for my environmental science students at the Coast Guard base where he works. Great time and good people!"

Kaitlin Buhler

"Growing up, my parents took me to the summer band concerts across from the Rosenberg library every week. La Izquierda is exactly the same, just with a different generation of music, of parents, and of children. Seeing friends gather to enjoy the summer nights in a place where they let their kids safely run and play, all the while enjoying an incredible array of music, brings me back to my own memories."

Michael Niebuhr

My favorite memory from La Izquierda is from year one. The festival is special to me for so many reasons. I’ve done surf competitions in Texas from a few different organizations, and La Izquierda really gets everything right. With the music, food, and friends, it feels like a coming home party even though the majority of us live here. [My daughter] Dacey nailed it. It's a family reunion.
