Gypsies create a night to remember...
The Island
|November 04, 2025
Yes, it certainly turned out to be an electrifying night with Sri Lanka's most beloved band, Gypsies, performing live at the Centre Concord, in San Francisco, California.
-
It all happened on Friday, 17th October, 2025, and doing the needful for readers of The Island is the now famous Mahesha Manjuka Warusawitharana who checked out the UB40 concert in San Francisco, on 26th September, 2025, and shared her excitement with our readers.
The 'Dance with Gypsies' concert, in San Francisco, was an unforgettable musical celebration that brought the vibrant spirit of Sri Lanka to California, says Mahesha, adding that the event was impeccably organised by Lucky Ace Productions.
Before arriving in San Francisco, the Gypsies had already thrilled audiences in Chicago, New York, and Texas, making the Bay Area stop one of the highlights of their US tour.
