Ballet Folklórico de Los Ángeles has shared the stage with bands celebrities such as Ana Barbara, Morrissey, Ruben (Cafe Tacuba), Las Cafeteras, Beatriz Adriana,  Paquita la del Barrio, Empress Of, and Armenian pop star Lilit Hovhannisyan.  This amazing dance troop was the the first folklórico company in the country  to accompany a Symphony; the San Bernardino Symphony Orchestra and the Marina del Rey Symphony orchestra, both conducted by Frank Fetta.  In 2016, BFLA was featured in the cover of National Geographic Traveller UK.
