Uber Offering On-Demand Mariachi Bands

Much like ordering a ride, people in the San Francisco area can get their very own fiesta delivered today (Cuatro de Mayo) using Uber's mobile app. Firing up the app between 12-5 p.m. PST will give you the option of getting a car or a fiesta. Tap the sombrero on the screen and select “Let's Party” to have the party literally come to you.

So what might the fiesta option entail?

Uber has three Bay Area-based mariachi bands roaming the streets in SUVs, armed with margarita mix and pinatas. Once ordered, the band will come to you and play a song from its repetiore -- or one you request -- and leave behind a pinata filled with “mystery and wonder.” The band also promises to leave behind a bottle of margarita mix (you have to provide your own tequila) and “beautiful memories.”

“Our Cuatro de Mayo On-Demand Mariachi promo is similar to our On-Demand BBQ sandwiches at SXSW 2012. They both highlight Uber's ability to deliver you 'the coolest things ever' in only 5 minutes,” Ryan Graves VP of Operations at Uber told Mashable. “We're all about logistics and experience, and I can guarantee this experience is going to be awesome.”

On-demand fiestas cost $100 per party and are billed directly to your saved credit card within Uber.
