Hey Las Cruces,

This is ❤️ Live Love Las Cruces, bringing you the hottest events in town, much like the chiles 🌶️ at the Hatch Chile Festival.

Okay the big weekend is finally here…. so much to do if you want. From big events like the Hatch Chile Festival to the two Wine Festivals.

But if you don’t like the big crowds just take a peak below cause there is really plenty to do this weekend. 😃

We are already looking at fun stuff to do next weekend like the 43rd Annual Elephant Butte Balloon Regatta
