According to the organizers, the presale for Citibanamex cardholders will take place next Wednesday (Oct. 30), with the regular sale for the general public opening the next day.

The Vive Latino will be returning to its original home at GNP Seguros Stadium (formerly Foro Sol), after the 2024 edition had to be held at Curve 4 of the Autódromo Hermanos Rodríguez, the same site where Formula 1 and the Corona Capital and Arre festivals are held annually, due to renovations of the venue.

Since its inception in 1998, the Ibero-American Festival of Musical Culture, better known as Vive Latino, has had a transgressive personality that has challenged stigmas: It was the first to incorporate pop, reggaeton, cumbia, and regional Mexican music artists into its lineup; it had an edition lasting four days; it added English-speaking bands despite being the ultimate celebration of rock es Español, and it is the first in Latin American festival to have its own edition in Spain.

The Vive Latino festival debuted on November 28-29, 1998, at the Foro Sol, on the east side of Mexico City. Since then, it has been held annually, except in 1999, 2002, and 2021, the latter due to the COVID pandemic.

Scheduled for a three-hour, two-set performance, this first-time collaboration draws inspiration from the recent success of Dead & Co.’s ongoing run of shows at Sphere in Las Vegas.

This year marks a pivotal one for Hulaween under the new co-ownership of festival magnates and Billboard Latin Power Players, Chris Den Uijl and Aaron Ampudia, with founding partner Michael Berg. Den Uijl and Ampudia, known for co-founding Baja Beach Fest in Rosarito, Mexico, Sueños in Chicago, and Mexico City’s Coca Cola Flow Festival, and more, all under their La Familia franchise, will bring a wealth of experience to Hulaween’s future.

“As a co-founder of the festival, the opportunity to reacquire Hulaween and continue its storied legacy is an incredible full-circle moment after over a decade of commitment and service to the Hulaween journey,” Berg tells Billboard. “Our goal to keep the dream alive is in the greatest possible hands with my friends and partners, Chris and Aaron, alongside the well-curated and longtime all-star team that produces Hulaween.”

With over 90 acts scheduled to perform, this year’s festival is poised to maintain its reputation as “arguably the greatest in the world for multi-genre lineups, experiential art, and a passionate community whose fans live for both,” adds Berg.

The festival’s new ownership trio — Den Uijl, Ampudia and Berg — not only oversee Hulaween but also helm other music events such as North Coast Music Festival and Rose on the River in Chicago.
