The Windy City is set to witness its very own reggaetón event, as the Sueños Music Festival has been announced to be heading to Chicago on Memorial Day weekend i.e. May 28 and 29.
J Balvin, Ozuna, and Wisin Y Yandel have been touted as the headliners, with the festival venue beinge being the iconic Grant Park.
Organized in collaboration with the people behind Mexico’s Baja Beach Fest and Lollapalooza respectively, the festival was announced on Tuesday.
Aaron Ampudia and Chris Den Uijl, co-founders of Baja Beach Fest, made the following statement:
“Ever since launching Baja Beach Fest in 2018, our dreams were to be able to expand an authentic reggaetón and Latin festival to the U.S. Being able to do it in Chicago with the producers of Lollapalooza in the iconic Grant Park makes it extra special. Chicago, nos vemos en Memorial Day Weekend listos para perrear.”
