Puerto Vallarta, México – The Amapas Neighborhood Association (ANA) is pleased to announce the Third Annual Rock the River fundraiser, a vibrant community event benefitting the Association’s Road to Safety initiative. Join friends, neighbors, and supporters on Saturday, March 14, 2026, from 1:00 pm to 6:00 pm at La Huerta BBQ & Grill in Paso Ancho for an afternoon of live music, great food, and community spirit.
Building on the success of previous Rock the River fundraisers, where attendees enjoyed live performances, local cuisine, and a lively atmosphere at La Huerta, this year’s pre-St. Patrick’s Day even will continue the tradition of combining entertainment with a meaningful cause. Past attendees will remember the standout musical performances paired with opportunities to engage with fellow residents, all while supporting our neighborhood priorities.
Live Music & Festivities
The iconic band THE LOVERS will take the stage to deliver an electrifying performance, setting the tone for an unforgettable afternoon. Guests can enjoy an afternoon alongside the Rio Cuale with an array of delicious offerings from La Huerta’s acclaimed menu, along with refreshing beverages available for cash purchase throughout the event.
Supporting Road to Safety
All proceeds from Rock the River directly support ANA’s Road to Safety initiative, a comprehensive effort to enhance traffic safety, improve pedestrian infrastructure, and strengthen emergency preparedness in Amapas. This project was launched in response to increased safety concerns in our community, and includes strategic improvements such as enhanced lighting, signage upgrades, safer pedestrian routes, and coordinated emergency planning.
