EL PASO, Texas (KTSM) — Enjoy music under a full moon at White Sands National Park next weekend during the Full Moon Night event.
The event will start at 7 p.m. on Saturday, Sept. 7, at White Sands’ outdoor amphitheatre.
Award-winning musician Randy Granger from Las Cruces will be forming Native American melodies and other music. Granger is of Mayan and Apache heritage and specializes in Native American flute, storytelling and other acoustic instruments, according to the news release by White Sands.
The event is free, but guests will have to pay the park entrance fee.
To get to the amphitheatre, drive roughly six miles beyond the fee station to an intersection just after the Backcountry Camping Trail parking lot. Take a right at that intersection and then the second left. Drive roughly one mile further and the amphitheatre will be on the right side.
The amphitheatre parking lot will open at 6 p.m. and the park’s hours will extend to 10 p.m. for the event.
According to the news release, seating is not provided at the amphitheatre. Guests are encouraged to bring camp chairs, blankets and coolers filled with drinks and food.
This is the third of the four Full Moon night events White Sands has hosted this year. For more information on the event and other upcoming ones, you can visit their website.
