Steven Retchless, Armando Chakam, Eva Jimenez, Mau Jimenez, Maru Prado Conti, Chris Lopez and Nacho Granados Will Perform
A one-night-only concert at The Palm Cabaret next month aims to turn music into support for theVallarta Gay+ Community Center.
“Stronger Together: Voices Live,” set for Sunday, March 1, 2026, will bring an all-star lineup of local performers to the stage for an hourlong show designed exclusively to raise funds for the center’s programs and services.
The benefit concert is the result of a collaboration between The Palm Cabaret and the Vallarta Gay+ Community Center, organizers said. The performance will feature Steven Retchless, Armando Chakam, Eva Jimenez, Mau Jimenez, Maru Prado Conti, Chris Lopez and Nacho Granados, all backed by a live band. The show is being produced by Chris Lopez.
Board President Matt Karimi said the event reflects the spirit of unity that defines the LGBTQ+ community in Puerto Vallarta.
“This show is a celebration of what happens when artists and community come together with a shared purpose,” Karimi said. “Every Peso raised goes directly to supporting the vital programs and services we provide. ‘Stronger Together’ is how we sustain and uplift our community.”
The Vallarta Gay+ Community Center offers a range of services, including health initiatives, support groups and community programming designed to provide connection and resources for residents and visitors alike.
The performance, described as a vibrant mix of popular songs delivered with heart and collaboration, was custom-designed for the benefit and will not be staged elsewhere.
“This is truly a one-night-only experience,” Karimi said. “We wanted to create something special — an unforgettable hour of music, joy and impact that also makes a tangible difference.”
The show will take place from 4 p.m. to 5 p.m. at The Palm Cabaret located at Olas Altas 508, in Puerto Vallarta’s Zona Romántica neighborhood.
Tickets are priced at $1,000 pesos and will be available at the door on a cash-only basis. Seating is limited, and reservations are recommended by calling the Palm Cabaret box office at +52 322 222 0200.
Organizers say the goal is not only to fill the venue but also to raise awareness about the center’s ongoing work and the importance of community support.
“We invite everyone — locals, snowbirds, visitors — to be part of this moment,” Karimi said. “When we show up for each other, we build something stronger than any one performance. We build community.”
All proceeds from ticket sales will directly benefit the Vallarta Gay+ Community Center.
