Massachusetts declares October 30 as Rawayana Day

Massachusetts Governor Maura Healey has officially proclaimed October 30, 2026, as “Rawayana Day” to honor the international career of the Venezuelan musical group. The proclamation, signed in Boston, recognizes the Caracas-formed band for its contributions to contemporary Latin music and its ability to promote Latin American culture through a blend of reggae, funk, rock, and Caribbean rhythms.

The recognition highlights the group’s global reach, specifically citing their “¿Dónde es el after?” world tour across Latin America, Europe, and North America. The declaration also notes the band’s 2025 Grammy Award for Best Latin Rock or Alternative Album. The official day coincided with the band’s performance at the MGM Music Hall at Fenway in Boston.
