Carlos Vives is gearing up to shine brighter than ever with his Tour Al Sol, Billboard Español can exclusively announce today (Nov. 10). The Colombian superstar’s upcoming North American tour, kicking off on April 16, will celebrate more than three decades of his illustrious career by revisiting timeless hits from his seminal albums Clásicos de La Provincia (1994) and La Tierra del Olvido (1995), as well as songs from the newly reimagined La Tierra del Olvido 30 Años (Remastered & Expanded), released in July. “Each show of Tour al Sol will be a concert from sunrise to sunset — a journey through the emotions of music that moves with the sun,” Vives tells Billboard Español. “It will feature a selection of songs, including the most remarkable vallenatos of my career, and pay tribute to classics.” He adds, “In short, Tour al Sol is a concert with the sun of La Provincia.” Covering 14 cities across North America, his tour will include stops at renowned venues such as Radio City Music Hall in New York, as well as Jazz Fest in New Orleans and will conclude with a special performance at the Coliseo de Puerto Rico José Miguel Agrelot on June 5. Presented by Cárdenas Marketing Network (CMN) in the U.S. and Canada, and No Limits Entertainment in Puerto Rico, Tour Al Sol will feature next level visual productions, including the symbolic ascent of La Provincia’s sun. According to the press release, the concert series will showcase “the path of the sun: from the first rays of sunrise, symbolizing hope and new beginnings, through the vibrant energy and joy of midday, to the sunset, when nostalgia and magic fill the stage.” Tickets for will go on presale on Thursday (Nov. 13) at 10 a.m., local time, via Spotify, and general ticket sales will follow the next day at 10 a.m., local time, here.
