Viernes Nights at OMCA with Los Tranquilos
Live Music by Los Tranquilos, Disco Dance Lesson with Soulchild, Caja Mágica’s All-Vinyl DJ Set, Bike with East Bay Community Tabling, and Gallery Chats
Septiembre 25 from 5:00 pm – 9:00 pm
Step into an evening of nostalgic rhythms, movement, and community connection this Viernes Night at OMCA. The Garden Stage comes alive with Los Tranquilos, a California trio blending the romantic soul, psychedelia, and classic grooves of 1960s and ’70s Latin America. With soulful melodies, rock influences, and timeless rhythms, their performance celebrates the rich musical traditions that continue to inspire generations.
The celebration continues in the Amphitheater with Caja Mágica’s all-vinyl DJ set, featuring a vibrant selection of Latin American records from the ’60s and ’70s across a range of genres. Guests can also get into the groove with community activist and dancer Soulchild during an introductory disco dance lesson, inviting participants to learn classic moves, embrace self-expression, and enjoy the joy of dancing together.
Visitors can connect with Bike East Bay in the Garden to learn about efforts to create safer, more accessible streets throughout the East Bay. Explore their advocacy work, discover free bike education classes and community events, and join in a creative “Draw a Bike From Memory” activity for all ages.
Alongside an exceptional event experience, Viernes Nights at OMCA also features Gallery Chats from 5:30–7:30 pm. Putting a twist on the traditional museum tour, Gallery Chats invite visitors to engage in meaningful conversations, share personal reflections, and explore new perspectives on the artwork, artifacts, and stories throughout OMCA’s galleries. Enthusiastic volunteer facilitators can be found floating between all of OMCA’s galleries, including its Great Hall Special Exhibitions, throughout the evening. Look for the blue “Let’s Chat” shirts to join the conversation. Gallery Chats are included with Museum admission.

Sobre los viernes por la noche:
The Town’s favorite block party, Viernes Nights at OMCA, is turning up the heat for its 2026 summer season. Viernes Nights invites the Bay to kick off the weekend with the crew—whether family, friends, or neighbors—starting at 5 pm with a free evening of live music, interactive activities, Off the Grid food trucks, and, with a Museum ticket purchase, exclusive late-night access to our galleries and special exhibitions.
Dale energía a tu noche con una selección variada de food trucks de Off the Grid situados a lo largo de la calle 10, entre las calles Oak y Fallon, que ofrecen sabores intensos y platos típicos locales. En el interior, cerca del estanque de carpas, puedes comprar cerveza, vino, cócteles y refrescantes opciones sin alcohol para degustar mientras exploras. En el jardín, las mesas de picnic, las mantas y unas vistas deslumbrantes del lago Merritt te invitan a acomodarte para disfrutar de tu comida. Con juegos, interesantes programas del museo y un animado ambiente comunitario, es el escenario perfecto para crear recuerdos marcados por la inconfundible energía de Oakland, semana tras semana.
El OMCA también ofrece una tarifa plana de aparcamiento de 10 dólares en el garaje del OMCA hasta las 22:00 h. Ten en cuenta que no se permite el consumo de alcohol traído de fuera, y que los detalles del evento y las actuaciones están sujetos a cambios.
