Mariachi music is always fun. Well, almost always. Perhaps, not for a person with a pounding hangover, but otherwise, always fun, passionate, festive and often emotionally compelling. Mariachi Vargas de Tecalitlan are bringing true celebration to the Winspear Opera House, 2100 Ross Ave., 8 p.m. Tuesday and you don’t want to miss it. At 113 years young, the seemingly undisputed “world’s greatest mariachi group” has seen a lot of changes over the years as they’ve revolutionized and reinvented the Mariachi wheel time and again–always with the unbridled joy and pride of Mexico. It’s often said, but this time it’s true: This is the kind of show you have to experience to believe. Tickets are $19 to $65. Call 214-880-0202 or visit attpac.org for more information.
