In a Nutshell

This legendary family band fuses rumba rhythms and flamenco guitars into Spanish hits such as "Bamboleo" and "Volare"

The Fine Print

Flamenco music is closely associated with romance, much like a bouquet of roses or a heart-shaped box filled with the hair of your crush. Listen to lovely rhythms with this GrouponLive deal for a G-Pass to see the Gipsy Kings at the Fox Theatre in Redwood City on Friday, August 24, at 7:30 p.m. Doors open at 6:30 p.m. Because the ticket is a G-Pass, Groupon customers can use it to enter the venue directly; they will not need to redeem their Groupon at will call. Choose between the following seating options:

  • For $22, you get one G-Pass for seating on the floor, sections F1 or F6, or gallery A, sections GA3 or GA4 (up to a $45.50 value, including fees).
  • For $30, you get one G-Pass for seating on the floor, sections F2 or F4, or mezzanine, sections M3 or M5 (up to a $60.85, including fees).

At a Gipsy Kings concert, there is no shortage of energy, or, for that matter, musicians. During each live performance, two bands of brothers, the ¬Reyes and the Baliardos—cousins of each other and sons of renowned flamenco artists—pile onstage to work up the crowd with a signature sound they've coined "rumba gitano." This happy marriage of South American–rumba rhythms and furious-flamenco guitar strumming spans cultures and keeps bodies moving like an ice-cream truck that won’t stop.

The family members have been playing together for more than 30 years, beginning as refugees in southern France during their native Spain’s civil war. After humbly busking on the streets of Cannes, the group became international sensations with its 1987 self-titled debut. Since then, the members have notched seven No. 1 albums on Billboard_’s Top World Albums chart, including _The Best of the Gipsy Kings, which spent 42 weeks at the top. Hits such as "Bamboleo," “Volare," and popular interpretations of songs such as the Eagles’ "Hotel California" unite audiences, no matter their linguistic limitations, into a throng of chorus shouters.

Fox Theatre

Fox Theatre, originally opened in 1929, has long been established as a venue for legendary performances, earning induction into the National Register of Historic Places in 1993. Domed entryways, walls lined with pastoral murals, intricate chandeliers, and a palette of brilliant gold and crimson hint at the venue's Moorish influences, which eclectically clash with the ordered lines of its Gothic exterior.

Due to security restrictions, G-Passes must be printed out and presented in person at the event. They cannot be redeemed through Groupon's mobile app.

MMA IFL 57: USA vs. Canada

Impact Fight League 57: War of Aggression pits American and Canadian fighters against one another in border-crossing bouts of merciless full-contact combat, showcasing a unique blend of fighting techniques. Stompers, punchers, and Vulcan nerve-pinchers from the Midwest and Canada converge at Joe Louis Arena, unleashing caged rage and bloodlust in battles that aren’t for the squeamish.

As the fight approaches, check the Donofrio Entertainment website for soon-to-be-announced information about the fighters, matchups, and advice on how to build a tree house with roundhouse kicks.

The Groupon Guide to: Grandfather Clocks

Contrary to popular belief, grandfather clocks aren’t clocks that had to move into the downstairs bedroom of your house because they have a bad hip and can’t get around so well these days. They’re actually beautiful and masterfully crafted timekeepers. Get the scoop on big clocks with this guide:

  • Grandfather clocks have a tall base so that they can be seen over the heads of houseguests lingering late into the night and household residents who aren’t supposed to be out of bed at that hour.

  • The ticking sound a grandfather clock emits each second reminds its owner of how swiftly time passes, time that could have been spent getting a sound night’s sleep.

  • The only person to ever successfully open a grandfather clock didn’t find any gears inside, just a list of men who were too busy wasting their time to be successful.

  • The White House has a famous grandfather clock called The Honorability. Little-known, single-term president Franklin Pierce once said of it, “I know that clocks can’t actually form opinions or frown disapprovingly, but that overgrown wristwatch is judging me and I’m going to kill it.”

Which US president killed a grandfather clock?
