I removed the auto dubbing. I had no idea that was on there. And the voice they used? A super white American voice to translate the Spanish lyrics! :-D

El Grito at LA City Hall in Los Angeles, California by Mary Cummins

El Grito at Los Angeles City Hall in Los Angeles, California by Mary Cummins. September 13, 2025. Mexican Independence day. Grito de Dolores. Lucha libre, mercado, vendors, music, folklorico dancing, DJs, food trucks. Los Jornaleros del Norte were there and they were fantastic. Their new song eff migre drops this week. Milpa Musica was there in a makeshift Mexican wrestling ring. Folklorico Revolution was there and were fantastic dancers. Grupo Pindekuecha were also there and were wonderful. I left around 7:00 pm because I needed to get home.

I had a great time though there were some big negatives. They made most of the event private. It was gated off on the side of City Hall. All the speakers were at the private gated off event. They had their own private entertainment, music, dancers. It looks like they were even served a sit down dinner in that area. I saw council person Monica Rodriguez in there in some photos along with General Consul of Mexico Carlos Gonzalez Gutierrez. I also saw people dressed in Mexican costumes.

They advertised free parking at the Music Center. It wasn't free even though I showed the parking guy the poster which said it was free with the exact address. It was only free for vendors with passes who had their names on a list or else it was $10. Someone was behind me at the parking entrance or else I would have left the lot to go find free parking.

There was also a gated off VIP seating area in front of the stage on the steps of City Hall. Just like last year there were maybe 300 white chairs which were 100% empty the entire time. People could have been able to sit down and sit closer to the stage but no. People couldn't dance in front of the stage like they usually do at events here.

I just realized that the empty seats are for VIPs from the private party. They will sit there after their party to watch the Mayor and others give the El Grito speech and ring the bell
