LAS VEGAS (April 18, 2022) – Following the end of their most successful U.S. Tour, Los Ángeles Azules announced today their return to the States with their upcoming De Iztapalapa Para el Mundo Tour. Produced by Live Nation, the 34-date tour will make a Las Vegas stop over Mexican Independence Day weekend at Michelob ULTRA Arena at Mandalay Bay Resort and Casino Saturday, Sept. 17, 2022.

 

With a completely revamped production, De Iztapalapa Para el Mundo will include special guests to perform the group’s most iconic songs, as well as their recent hits “Cumbia a la gente” and “Otra noche.”

 

De Iztapalapa Para El Mundo follows the band’s enormously successful 40 Años U.S. Tour which amassed more than 25 SOLD OUT shows across the nation, including shows in New York, Dallas, Las Vegas, Chicago and two in Los Angeles.

 

Only a few weeks back, Los Ángeles Azules announced their end-of-tour dates in South America and made history by selling out five consecutive shows at Buenos Aires’ legendary Luna Park in less than five days.
