Buenos Aires.- Thousands of people experienced this Friday a prelude full of euphoria, colors and joy before the first of the three concerts that the Puerto Rican artist Benito Antonio Martínez Ocasio, known as Bad Bunny, will offer in Buenos Aires as part of his tour ‘DeBí TiRAR MáS FOToS’, in which it will also be his first show after his resounding performance in the Super Bowl halftime show.
From early on, the surroundings of the Monumental stadium, in the city of Buenos Aires, transformed this Friday into a mosaic of creativity and urban passion as a prelude to the first of the three shows - February 13, 14 and 15, all sold out- that Bad Bunny will give in Buenos Aires.
The fans arrived with original outfits, flowers in their hair, and personalized garments with phrases like “Benito”, “Bunny” or “RIP Bunny”, as well as iconic images of the artist. The Puerto Rican flag was waving among the crowd, while street vendors offered unofficial t-shirts and accessories that completed the festive aesthetic.
Among those present, Jazmín Morgante, an employee of a gas station, told EFE: “I am very excited, I love not only him but the production. River is bigger and perfect for this tour. I feel that it is going to be a hit. He represents Puerto Rico, America, and history will remember him as an artist who was on the right side.”You may be interested in: Bad Bunny is recognized in Puerto Rico for his contribution to the dissemination of Spanish in the world
Security personnel, identified by fluorescent vests, handed out bracelets and camera-shaped pendants and yellow cords with tour inscriptions, simulating credentials that reinforced the atmosphere of anticipation and unity among the fans. Valentín Pereira, a programmer, summarized the magnitude of the phenomenon to EFE: "I came to see the most listened-to artist in the world, who transcends cultures and languages. I hope we make him feel at home, because he says we are the best audience in the world." Ailín Romero, meanwhile, highlighted the artist's political message: “I love that he uses his music to convey a political message that represents not only joy but also our voice as Latin Americans.” The stadium doors opened at 4:00 PM local time (7:00 PM GMT) and the official schedule includes an opening show by the Puerto Rican group Chuwi, followed by Bad Bunny's performance at 9:00 PM local time (00:00 GMT). Bad Bunny gives his first show in Argentina after his outstanding performance in the halftime show of the Super Bowl in the United States last Sunday, where he made reference to Puerto Rico and Latin America.
