Aventura, one of the best-known bachata groups, will take the stage at 7:30 p.m., Friday, Sept. 24, in Mitchell Hall.

The concert is presented by HOLA, UD’s Hispanic Organization for Latino Americans. Bachata is popular guitar music from the Dominican Republic.

Aventura has revolutionized Latin music by fusing R&B, hip-hop and bachata. The popular band performs in English, Spanish and “Spanglish.”

The group’s album "We Broke the Rules," features a chart-topping single, "Obsession," which sold more than over 60,000 copies in the first week and has exceeded 100,000 copies to date.

Tickets for the concert, which are on sale at UD box offices and through Ticketmaster (where a convenience charge may apply), are $22 for UD students and $25 after Sept. 23. Tickets for the general public are $30 and $35 after Sept. 23. Doors open at 7 p.m.
