FRAN CARRERA
GENERAL MANAGER, LA BESTIA
Over the last 10 years, La Bestia has built a vibrant community both in physical spaces and online: a platform that draws strength from today’s Latin American alternative music landscape. We began operations in 2016 as a small space offering rehearsal rooms for hourly rental. Nowadays La Bestia has expanded not only in size but also in commercial and cultural offerings, building a recording studio in 2018, a venue and a radio station in 2020, and finally opened our own independent record store in 2024.
Our Mission: To be a music-driven community where you’ll find your favorite new artist, your biggest fan, or your new best friend.
Our Vision: A Latin America with an ever-evolving alternative music ecosystem that nurtures people’s lives through new music and musicians have real opportunities for global recognition while prioritizing the well-being of the community.
