Juanes on Tour
When he takes the stage, global megastar Juanes blends the traditional music of his native Colombia with the international language of catchy, guitar-driven pop-rock, contemporary dance beats, and the compelling power of his silky and vibrant tenor voice.
On his 2019 tour, Juanes introduces a new stage set and light show. It follows his 2018 Amarte tour, whose outer-space theme reflected the science-fiction vibe of Mis Planes Son Amarte (My Plans Are to Love You), an ambitious video concept album about love both extraterrestrial and everyday. Juanes launched into the musical stratosphere in 2000 with the release of his solo debut, Fijate Bien (Take a Good Look), which won three Latin Grammy Awards. He's subsequently sold more than 15 million albums worldwide.
Juanes Background
Juan Esteban Aristizábal Vásquez, known professionally as Juanes, was raised in Medellín, Colombia, during drug kingpin Pablo Escobar's violent heyday. After several albums with the rock band Ekhymosis, Juanes went solo with Fijate Bien, which included tracks influenced by Colombian coastal music, hip-hop, and emotional Hispanic balladry.
In 2002, Un Día Normal (A Normal Day) featured "A Dios le Pido" (I Pray to God), a hymn for peace throughout Latin America. Juanes has won 20 Latin Grammy Awards as well as Grammy Awards for Juanes MTV Unplugged (2013) and Loco de Amor (Love Crazy, 2015). While his latest music often touches on disco, reggaeton, and other forms of dance music, it still relies on cumbia, salsa, and vallenato — among other sounds Juanes heard growing up — for its core emotional resonance.
Juanes adds a strong streak of humanitarianism to his music. In 2006, he established the Mi Sangre foundation to assist Colombian landmine victims. In 2008 and 2009, he headlined Peace Without Borders concerts calling for cultural exchange across Latin America. "The world is crazy, if you look at who is running the world now," Juanes told The New York Times in 2018. "It's a very tough moment. But I really want to concentrate on the positive side. To me, music is a cure of my soul."

Awesome show!! All the hits and a few new ones too! Love Juanes!
This concert immediately ranked at my #2 best concert ever. Juanes not only performed a wonderful set, but his attitude, humor, and involvement with the audience were top notch. And he is 52 and at the top of his game. Simply amazing!!! ¡Gracias, Juanes!
This was my second time seeing Juanes and that man knows how to put on a great show. It was my first time at the Fox Theatre. The venue is so beautiful and the staff were so nice and helpful. The whole show ran smoothly so I couldn't have asked for a better concert experience.
Juanes sang and did not waste time talking. It was amazing to see him come down the stairs and greet his fans. I have been to over 500 concerts throughout my life and this is the first time that I see a musician step down from the stage to greet fans. Juanes had everyone signing, laughing and dancing to his great music. I now want to go see him again!
It was a great experience. The atmosphere was energetic and the performer had great showmanship
I've been a Juanes fan for 20 years but had never seen him live. Because this show was at the Fox, even a meh concert here is still beautiful. But WOW!! What energy, what music, what a show! Pure entertainment from start to finish. Not only did he perform a setlist that pleased everyone, except didn't play Amame :-(, but the greatest part was how engaged he was with the audience. Lately it feels that artists are either just following a script, or plainly don't want to be there. Ive been to shows where not a word is said to the audience. Juanes was the opposite... as if they didn't want to leave the stage! At one point he came down into the audience to perform a song. Seriously, the best. Can't wait to see him again!!
I’ve grown up listening to Juanes and had the best time hearing him sing live. From his hits to a variety of covers, it was amazing to experience his talent live.
Juanes was the best performance I have seen in many years of going to concerts. His passion of playing the guitar and singing was brilliant. The acoustics at the Fox Theater was perfect. I felt like I should have paid more for my ticket. Juanes is a must see!
I’m so glad Juanes played in St Louis, I never thought I would be able to see him in concert. I loved every song choice and he played guitar and sang beautifully. Love the new La Vida Cotidiana music!!! Gris y Ojala son mis favoritos!! Muy bien! Go see him in concert if you can 😍😊
The venue is great and Juanes did an amazing job, he is an excellent singer but above all he is humble and human.
💯 I really liked , we have a very nice experience we really want him back to St. Louis MO.
The concert was great! The factory is the perfect venue to enjoy your favorite shows!
So far one of the best Spanish speaking concerts I have attended and look forward to another opportunity to see it at the Factory again.
One of THE Best shows I have ever been to! Fantastic performance and such an incredible person. I wish I could follow them to every city just to hear them again and again!
Juanes is not only a great artist but the show we went to was phenomenal! He is definitely one of the greats!! Can't wait for him to come back to Hammond!
It was a great show. I was impressed by the performance Juanes put on!
We just recently seen Juanes at the Horseshoe Hammond show! My very first Juanes concert! I can't explain this but his music really connects with me. I don’t know Spanish but for whatever reason his music really impacted me. He is a LEGEND! I watch most concert clips on you tube, but seeing him live and experiencing it in person is life changing! I've been a fan for a long time (still am) but was never able to go to any of his concerts until he came close to where I live! I hope he comes back! The best show I've ever been to! Highly recommend for everyone to go see him and listen to his music!! He is one of the Greats!! A true humble Talented artist!! Juanes, Please come back! ❤
Absolutely love this artist and everything he stands for and represents. His heart is golden! Me encanta!
It was an amazing concert! I had such a good time! Juanes really brought the energy, as always. :D
This was an amazing evening with a talented artist and his terrific band. The songs flowed from one to the next, keeping the energy level high. In a magical moment I will treasure, Juanes performed solo in the aisle of the theater, singing and playing his acoustic guitar, surrounded by the love and respect of his fans. Highest praises!
