After dropping his fifth studio album Jose, J Balvin announced today (Sept. 10) the dates for his 2022 U.S., Canada and Puerto Rico tour.
Produced by Cárdenas Marketing Network (CMN), the Colombian star’s 25-date Jose trek is set to kick off April 19 in San Antonio’s AT&T Center and wrap up June 4 at El Coliseo de Puerto Rico — with stops in Las Vegas, Miami and New York. “I think he’s in the best moment of his life,” Henry Cárdenas, CEO of CMN, tells Billboard. “Between Balvin and CMN, we’re going to sell out.”
J Balvin has grossed more than $20 million and sold over 300,000 tickets, according to figures reported to Billboard Boxscore. His new set — home to 24 tracks including the Grammy Award-nominated “Un Día (One Day)” and “Qué Más Pues?” — follows Balvin’s 2020 Colores, which peaked No. 2 on the Top Latin Albums chart and at No. 15 on the Billboard 200.
The “Que Locura” singer has been busy this year releasing a handful of singles, jumping on star-studded remixes and slowly returning to live shows with sporadic performances at festivals such as Baja Beach Fest in Mexico and Neon Experience in Las Vegas, an event curated by the artist himself featuring artists such as Karol G, Nio Garcia and Jowell & Randy.
Most recently, Balvin logged his 31st No. 1 on Billboard‘s Latin Airplay chart thanks to the ’90s dance hit-interpolated, Skrillex-assisted “In Da Getto,” tying him with Enrique Iglesias for the most leaders in the chart’s history.
J Balvin is a nine-time finalist at the 2021 Billboard Latin Music Awards. He’s garnered four nods for “Ritmo (Bad Boys for Life),” the blockbuster track with Black Eyed Peas, and is also up for artist of the year.
Tickets will be available for presale Sept. 13 at 12pm local time and for general sale on Sept. 17 through Ticketmaster, AXS, SeatGeek, Evenko.ca and Ticketerapr.com.
