The III Music Fiesta 2010, organized by the Alliance Francaise in Santo Domingo, is being held from Saturday, 19 June from 6pm to 12 midnight throughout the Colonial City, continuing through 21 June. The events are sponsored by Santo Domingo Municipality, the Ministry of Tourism and the Ministry of Culture. Performances including jazz, hip hop, rock, classical, reggaeton and folk music can be seen at Casa de Teatro, Teatro Guloya, the Tourism Cluster of Santo Domingo, Fundacion Taller Publico Silvano Lora, Teatro Las Mascaras, Fundacion Juan Mayi, Brazilian Culture Center, the Spanish Culture Center, the Nicolas de Ovando and Mercure Accor Group hotels, and the Dominican-French Chamber of Commerce.
