Editor’s Note:  The list features only U.S. tours and is updated on a weekly basis. Tours that have already ended have been removed from the list .

2023 marked a significant year in touring for Latin acts across multiple genres, including reggaetón, música mexicana and pop. They represent a wide-ranging crop of artists who’ve diversified the Billboard touring charts, according to the year-end Boxscore chart . More and more Spanish-language artists also toured stadiums, as was the case for Fuerza Regida , RBD and Karol G . The latter landed at No. 11 on the 2023 Top Tours chart, with $146.9 million and 843,000 tickets sold from just 19 dates of her Mañana Será Bonito U.S. stadium tour.

It’s set to follow the hitmaker’s World’s Hottest Tour stadium run, which along with his Ultimo Tour del Mundo arena run led to a  record-breaking  $435 million in tour grosses for Bad Bunny in 2022.

Brzilian superstar Anitta is set to embark on her 2024 Baile Funk Experience Tour. The 20-date global trek includes her first-ever North American leg. Other artists who are set to hit the road next year are Pepe Aguilar , Laura Pausini , Hombres G and Gloria Trevi .

• San Juan Launches La Ruta de la Salsa
• Posted on 2016-07-20

Executive Director of the Puerto Rico Tourism Company (PRTC), Ingrid I. Rivera Rocafort, announced the launch of La Ruta de la Salsa, or The Salsa Route. Created by PRTC certified tour guide Clemente de Freitas, this route aims to provide both local and international tourists an in-depth look at the salsa music genre, honoring past legends such as Héctor Lavoe, Ismael Rivera and Cheo Feliciano.

“This route is the answer for all tourists and salsa lovers who come to Puerto Rico in search of information about the roots and history of the Island’s beloved salsa music,” said Rivera Rocafort. “This niche audience will be thrilled to dive into the world of salsa with activities such as tours led by PRTC’s certified guides, which focus on places where Puerto Rican salsa originated and made history.”

La Ruta de la Salsa will include destinations such as La Placita de Santurce, Plaza de Los Salseros and Villa Palmera Cemetary, where several prominent salsa dancers were buried. Additionally, travelers will visit Puerto Rico’s most famous salsa record shop, La Cerra Musical, as well as social locations such as Nuyorican Café, Luna Street and Trastalleres, popular amongst salsa dancers.

Salsa is the most influential and lively music genre in Puerto Rico. Although it originated in New York in the 1960s, salsa was cultivated in Puerto Rico and then expanded throughout the world. Salsa legends such as La Sonora Ponceña and Gran Combo de Puerto Rico helped make salsa a national staple within the Puerto Rican culture.

PRTC’s certified tour guides are happy to talk to those interested in La Ruta de la Salsa. Please refer to the contact list below.

So, if you’re currently planning your trip and are interested in what else you can do in Cali, then you’re in the right place.

In this guide, we’ll list some of the best attractions in Cali, from beautiful churches to street art and scenic views. As usual, you can also read about how to get to Cali, the best time to visit, where to stay and where to eat in this award winning Colombian city.

Introducing Cali, Colombia

Located in the Valle del Cauca region, Cali is the third largest city in Colombia after Bogota and Medellin. The city’s full name is actually Santiago de Cali, but everyone just refers to it as Cali.

It was founded in 1536 by the Spanish conquistador Sebastián de Belalcázar. Of course before the Spanish, Cali was inhabited by indigenous tribes. During the colonial era, the area was occupied by haciendas – large estates and plantations. The city gained its independence from Spain in 1811.

During the 19th century, Cali was the centre of the sugar plantation economy. Industrialisation and modernisation of the agricultural sector in the 20th century led to the rapid growth of the city’s economy. Cali today is one of the major economic and industrial centers in Colombia.

For a lot of people Cali is known as the ‘Salsa Capital of the World’ and attracts visitors from all over for this reason. However, the city is also one of the most important Sports Centers in Colombia and has hosted many important games over the years.

Cali has won the World Travel Awards’ ‘South America’s Leading Cultural City Destination’ award for multiple years.

Things to Do in Cali, Colombia

1. go on a salsa tour.

Since Cali is known as the ‘Salsa Capital of the World’ most visitors come to the city with the intention of learning about salsa. You can follow the ‘Salsa Route’ (La Ruta de la Salsa) that guides you through the city between Antigua Estacion del Tren de Cali and Parque Alameda. Along the way you can visit places like the Salsa Museum (Museo de la Salsa) and the Jairo Varela Square (Plazoleta Jairo Varela) . They normally have a map of the Salsa Route at each of the must-see stops.

In our opinion, the best way to appreciate and understand Cali’s salsa culture is by joining a dedicated salsa tour . These tours normally last for 4 or 5 hours. During this time, your local guide will take you to different spots around Cali where you can learn and experience salsa.

2. Sign Up for a Salsa Class

Once you’ve gained enough background knowledge about salsa, why not learn some of the dance moves as well. With a lot of visitors arriving here to experience Cali’s salsa scene, there are numerous places offering salsa lessons. Whether you’re a beginner, or already have some experience, you can sign up for either a private or group class.

Sometimes hostels like Viajero hostel offer free lessons for their guests, which is worth considering when booking your accommodation. You can also sign up for lessons at places like Salsa Pura or  Rumba Y Salsa . Taking some lessons is a great way to meet with fellow travellers whilst also learning a new skill.

Once you’ve gained some confidence, it’s time to hit one of the clubs and dance the night away.

3. Watch a Salsa Show at Delirio

If you want to see a fantastic salsa show then you should book one at Delirio .

The Delirio Foundation (Fundación Delirio) was created in 2006 to help reclaim the popular culture of the city and to also provide artists with the opportunity to obtain professional recognition. Their show is an incredible mix of concert, circus and salsa. They’re like the Cirque du Soleil of salsa.

You can watch their incredible show on the last Friday of every month at the Pacific Valley Events Center (Centro de Eventos Valle Del Pacifico) . The show normally starts after 9PM (although the doors are open from about 7PM) and won’t end until 2AM. You will need to book your ticket in advance because they do sell out quickly!

Don’t worry if you’re not in Cali on that specific day though. You can buy a ticket to see Paseo de la Aurora, which is performed every Saturday and Sunday at the same place as the monthly show.

During your weekend visit you will be able to interact with the artists, enjoy live shows, join in with some salsa lessons and have some food. It is a bit like a festival but more family oriented. Apart from us, we only saw a handful of other ‘gringos’ there. Just bear in mind that to truly enjoy the experience, you may want to understand a little bit of Spanish. Even though we’re not fluent, we had a ton of fun interacting with the artists using our limited language knowledge. Attending this weekend show became one of our favourite memories from Colombia.

4. Join a Free Walking Tour

The best way to get to know a new city is by joining a free walking tour. Local guides will walk you to some of the best spots within Cali’s historic centre and will tell you plenty of interesting facts about the city.

If you stay somewhere like the Viajero hostel , then you can just sign up for a free walking tour with them. Alternatively, you can also secure a spot online via this tour .

Note. Whilst the walking tour is free, it’s expected that you leave a tip if you’ve had a good experience. Make sure to bring enough cash with you!

5. Check out Iglesia La Ermita Church

La Ermita is a church that you can’t miss seeing when visiting Cali. There used to be a small chapel where La Ermita stands today, however it was destroyed in a strong earthquake.

Overlooking Rio Cali, the picture perfect church you see today was inspired by the Ulm Cathedral in Germany. It was built in a neo-Gothic style between 1930 and 1948.

Inside the blue and white church you can check out some artwork and paintings. The marble altar is from Italy, and the musical clock and windows are from the Netherlands.

6. Experience the Sounds at Jairo Varela Square

Right next to the leafy Boulevard del Rio is Plazoleta Jairo Varela. This square is also one of the stops along the Salsa Route. Even if you don’t fancy completing the whole route, you should still visit this plaza.

Here you can visit Museo Jairo Varela which is dedicated to Chocoano Jairo Varela, one of the greatest artists of Colombian salsa. He was the founder (and also composer) of the salsa group called Grupo Niche.

The coolest attraction in this square has to be the giant trumpet-shaped monument . The structure forms the letters of the word NICHE. Each horn of the trumpet plays a song in harmonic, melodic and rhythmic elements respectively.

There’s also a Gastronomic and Cultural Market , where you can try different types of foods.

7. Go for a Walk along Cali River

A relaxing thing to do in Cali is to take a stroll down Río Cali. The river flows through the north of Cali, skirting around the city centre. It originates from Farallones de Cali, a mountain range that towers over the west side of the city.

The river bank is lined by a nice promenade (Bulevar del Río) and also filled with tree-lined green spaces. These provide the perfect place for a walk or bike ride, and you can just enjoy some shade when its hot. It reminded us of the leafy river walk we did in Cuenca, Ecuador .

There are also a few points of interest along Río Cali that are worth stopping at. One of them is Museo La Tertulia , an art museum containing a collection of Colombian and international art. There’s also Parque del Peñon , a small park where you might spot a few vendors selling their artwork. You can also stop by the Iglesia la Merced , an old church that is part of the La Merced Religious Complex. Make sure to pop into the Gold Museum too, located just behind the church.

8. Stop by Cali’s Cat Park

As you make your way along the river, you’ll come across Cali’s cool cat park called El Parque del Gato de Tejada . Now, unlike the cat park in the Miraflores district of Lima in Peru, you won’t find any real cats in this park.

Instead, you’ll see a giant bronze cat statue called El Gato del Río and an additional 15 colorful smaller ones. They were installed as part of an improvement project to make this area of Cali more inviting. The huge statue was donated by Hernando Tejada, a Colombian artist, and the smaller statues were all painted by different local artists.

9. Wander Around San Antonio

Being the oldest part of Cali, you should definitely spend some time wandering around the San Antonio neighbourhood. It is basically the bohemian, hipster area of the city with narrow streets, colourful houses, antique shops, and plenty of street art. Many Colombian artists and writers used to live in this part of Cali.

As you can imagine, there are lots of artsy cafes and restaurants here where you can stop for lunch or a drink.

San Antonio is considered a safe barrio and many visitors book their accommodation around here. As always, we still advise you to be cautious.

10. Enjoy the Views from Parque San Antonio

If you’re walking around San Antonio, then you should definitely make your way up to San Antonio Park.

On top of San Antonio Hill (Colina de San Antonio) , there’s an old church called Iglesia San Antonio . This small church was built back in 1747, making it the oldest church in Cali. Inside, there is a collection of 17th century wooden statues of saints.

The best part about this park is that from this vantage point, you get to enjoy some lovely views of Cali.

11. Try Some Cholado

Every part of Colombia seems to have an interesting dish that you may only be able to try in that location. Cali is no exception and is known for some unique foods. One of these is called cholado . It is essentially a cup of shredded ice, mixed tropical fruits, condensed milk, jam, and biscuits and wafers, all topped off with ice cream.

However, there are other typical dishes that you might want to taste when in the city, such as pandebono, sancocho de gallina , chontaduro , or champús del valle .

Top Tip. If you’d like to learn more about Cali’s cuisine, then definitely sign up for a street food tour like this free tour of the Alameda Market or this affordable tour that takes you to multiple parts of the city.

12. Enjoy the Views from El Cristo Rey

Note. Access to Cristo Rey is currently closed due to renovation works.

If you’d like to get panoramic views of Cali and its surrounding area, then definitely head up to Cristo Rey Monument. The 26-metre high statue is located on top of Cerro de los Cristales to the west of the city.

Some people choose to hike up there on a trail from the city centre, although our taxi driver told us that it can be quite dangerous. If you want to hike this trail, then make sure to only do it earlier in the day, don’t do it solo and don’t take a lot of valuables with you.

Alternatively, you can also take a taxi up. Just bear in mind that the taxi can cost a fair amount (drivers normally have a set price), since it’s a bit of a drive out of the city. We personally walked back down along the road (which is much safer if you do want to walk one way or the other), but if you want to return with the taxi then just ask the driver to wait for you.

Top Tip. If you get a bit peckish, then definitely stop at one of the many pizza places lining the road on the way up.

How to Get to Cali, Colombia

Depending on where you’re coming from, there are a few ways you can reach Santiago de Cali.

Plane. The quickest way to get to Cali is to fly. Alfonso Bonilla Aragón Airport (CLO) is located to the north of Cali and services both international and domestic flights. It depends on where you’re coming from, but there are many direct flights between Cali and other major cities in Colombia, such as Bogota and Medellin. There are also a few direct international flights to Cali from North, South, and Central America, as well as one from Spain in Europe. You can check where you can fly direct to Cali from on  this website.

Find Flights to Cali ✈️

Bus. Bus travel between cities in Colombia is a popular and affordable way to travel for both locals and backpackers alike.

You can reach Cali by bus from either Terminal de Salitre or Terminal del Sur in Bogota. All buses will drop you off at Terminal de Transporte Cali. The journey takes between 10 to 12 hours depending on the bus company and route.

There are also direct bus services running between Medellin, the second largest city in Colombia, and Cali. Buses leave from Terminal del Sur in Medellin and will drop you off at Terminal de Transporte Cali. The journey takes anywhere between 8 to 12 hours depending on the bus company and route.

If you’re coming from Salento, you can easily get to Cali by travelling to Armenia first, then hopping onto another bus to Cali. They leave very regularly and the journey is only about 3.5 hours long.

You can book your ticket to Cali with  Busbud  or at the bus station in person.

Where to Stay in Cali, Colombia

The best neighbourhood to stay in in Cali is San Antonio . It’s close to the city centre and there are plenty of amenities in the area. There are plenty of hotels and hostels, such as the popular Viajero hostel which offers free walking tours and even some free salsa lessons to its guests. Since its a popular hostel, it can be pretty lively. Alternatively, you can also book La Casa de Adry , La Vaina hostel or Magic Garden House hotel.

To the north of San Antonio is El Peñon , which is possibly the safest area you can stay in. It is the upscale neighbourhood of Cali, so bear in mind that prices are going to be higher here than other parts of the city.

You can also consider booking something around Caicedo Square in the centre of Cali. There are some affordable places to stay here too and plenty of amenities. Versalles and Granada are also great areas to stay in in Cali. They are more residential and quieter neighbourhoods.

Where to Eat in Cali, Colombia

There are plenty of places to eat in Santiago de Cali. Below we’ve listed a few of our favourite places:

Alameda Market is a fantastic place to find something delicious. The market is filled with stalls selling fresh fruit and vegetables, as well as plenty of other traditional dishes. A lot of street food tours come here.

Alma & Café is a lovely restaurant serving delicious vegetarian and vegan food in the San Antonio neighbourhood. They have a great daily menu too.

Madre Selva is another great vegan place with lunch deals in the San Antonio area of Cali.

Pizza from one of the pizzerias on the way up to Cristo Rey viewpoint. Whilst its not a traditional Colombian dish, and they probably won’t taste quite as good as in Italy, it’s still nice to have a slice of comfort food when travelling.

Juan Valdez Cafe  is basically the Starbucks of Colombia. Whilst it’s a large chain, we definitely enjoyed popping in here for a quick coffee and some pastries.

Best Time to Visit Cali, Colombia

Cali is located at 1,014 m (3,327 ft) above sea level in close proximity to the equator. You can visit Cali all year round, but there are better and worse times to visit the salsa capital.

The dry season is from December to February and from July to August. Then there’s the rainy season, which lasts from March to May and from September to November. The high tourist months in Cali are between July and September, then in November and December.

You may want to visit Cali during one of its popular festivals. La Feria de Cali is held in December every year. It’s a week of salsa shows, cultural events and music performances, so you’re guaranteed a ton of fun. 

Final Thoughts on Things to Do in Cali, Colombia

Whilst we didn’t think that Cali would be jampacked with attractions like Bogota or Medellin , we were pleasantly surprised by just how much you can do in the city. It was actually nice not to see as many tourists here as we did in popular places like Cartagena .

We think it’s safe to say that attending the weekend salsa event organised by Delirio had to be the best part of our stay. It’s a shame that we couldn’t watch the actual monthly show, but thankfully we could still enjoy their performance and can only imagine how fantastic the main event would be.

Carin León rugirá con su ‘Boca Chueca Tour’ en el BMO, pero antes cantará rock en el escenario de The Rolling Stones

El cantante de regional mexicano anuncia su gira por los Estados Unidos y Europa con presentaciones en Madrid, Londres, París y Amsterdam

• Show more sharing options
• Copy Link URL Copied!

Luego de su exitosa presentación en Jimmy Kimmel Live junto al cantautor y productor musical americano Leon Bridges, donde reunió a cientos de fanáticos, nuestro felino Carin León rugió anoche con fuerza en las instalaciones del BMO Stadium de Los Ángeles para anunciar su nueva gira de conciertos que lo llevará, precisamente, el 13 de septiembre a la casa del equipo de futbol LAFC y a los diferentes escenarios de renombre de este país.

“Boca Chueca Tour” es el nombre de este viaje musical que apoyará su nueva producción del mismo nombre que incluye interesantes duetos, propuestas musicales innovadoras y fusiones más allá del regional mexicano.

“Con la producción de este disco teníamos un plan, pero como siempre terminó en otra cosa y con todo lo que estaba pasando vimos que al fin de cuenta que lo que siempre buscamos es una identidad y lo hemos logrado al hecho de empezar a soltar muchas cosas como qué es lo que va a pensar la gente si me pongo o hago esto, que si grabo esta canción, que si está bien o está mal. Creo que el único tabulador que hemos tenido desde el principio es seguir nuestro corazón, y claro, también tenemos nuestros demonios y creo que este disco habla de eso, de abrazar a nuestros demonios y usarlos a nuestro favor”, dijo Carin León en su encuentro con los medios de Los Ángeles.

Una de las cosas que más le ha funcionado y que su padre le enseñó desde pequeño es que las personas ocupadas no tienen tiempo para distraerse, eso siempre lo ha puesto en práctica y le ha funcionado y si no, vean a su alrededor lo que viene logrando a nivel profesional.

“Soy una persona que está enfocada en lo mío y no me fijo mucho en lo que dicen las personas y al momento que lo hacen, lo que hago es enviarle un mensaje de paz. ‘Boca Chueca’ también tiene que ver con el título del disco y como decimos en Sonora, eso de que tengo la boca chueca, entonces para nosotros, que soy un artista diferente que siempre está buscando ser sincero, creo que este disco que viene es como vómito, como visceral, con cosas que tenían que salir desde hace tiempo mostrando un lado de Carin que mucha gente no conoce”, agregó el oriundo de Hermosillo, Sonora.

Entretenimiento

Carin León, con la llave de la Ciudad de Coachella y el público en el bolsillo

El artista actuará en el festival musical Stagecoach, de Indio, también como telonero de la banda Rolling Stones en el concierto de Glendale, Arizona y competirá en los Latin AMAs este jueves

Abr. 23, 2024

Las últimas semanas Carin ha vivido momentos realmente importantes y fascinantes para su carrera con actuaciones en el Coachella Fest y en el festival de música country Stagecoach , además de recibir la llave de la ciudad de Coachella y de participar en los Latin American Music Award donde llegó con 7 nominaciones y al final fue galardonado con el premio a Mejor Artista-Regional Mexicano. Todo esto en apenas unos días y que la parecer le dio la oportunidad a su manager Jorge Juárez a ser nombrado ejecutivo del Mes de Billboard en Español.

El artista que en la actualidad se ha convertido en el referente por excelencia de los duetos sin importar el género musical, con participaciones al lado de artistas como Grupo Frontera, Kany García, Grupo Firme, Maluma, Mau y Ricky, Matisse, Àngela Aguilar, Espinoza Paz, Marca Registrada, Enigma Norteño, Pancho Barraza, Mike Bahía, Grupo Yndio, Pablo Alborán, Yuri y hasta con el hoy fallecido Diego Verdaguer, entre muchos otros, hoy Carin sigue abriéndole la puerta a colaboraciones más allá del regional mexicano como lo hizo recientemente junto a Camilo en el género de la salsa, además seguir experimentando, incluso, al lado de artistas del mercado anglo como Kane Brown con “The One” y como lo mencionamos al principio de este artículo, junto a Leon Bridges con el tema “It Was Always You” (Siempre fuiste tú”)..

Con todo este abanico de opciones, su “Boca Chueca” Tour se presta mucho para tener grandes sorpresas e invitados especiales durante su recorrido en las diferentes plazas y eso Carin lo tiene contemplado. “Hay muchos planes, vamos a compartir música, con lo que está pasando con nuestro proyecto y compartirlo con nuestros amigos y no necesariamente tenemos que tener canciones grabadas. Yo soy una persona que le gusta mucho improvisar y de repente me ha tocado de que estamos en un concierto como me ha pasado con mi compadre Santa Fe Klan de que no teníamos pensado nada y derepente improvisamos algo que es muy parte del folclor mexicano que le gustan cosas rápidas e improvisadas”, señaló el cantante que estará haciendo el recorrido de manos de AEG Presents.

Para Clarín este compartir con sus colegas es toda una satisfacción y orgullo. “Y es por el gusto de celebrar también con mis amigos contemporáneos por todo lo que está pasando con la música latina, con la música mexicana y vaya, celebrarlo arriba de un escenario con gente a la que admiro y con la que tenido la oportunidad de compartir haciendo música, creo que es muy interesante para el público y lo tenemos siempre presente y ahí está la base de toda la música, de compartir escenario, de compartir canciones y momentos”, agregó Clarín, quien aseguró que por ahí los fans podrán ver a Camilo en su escenario al igual que Kane Brown o Leon Bridges y muchos de los que viene en su nuevo disco.

Carin León debutó en el Stagecoach e invitó a Ana Bárbara; ahora se prepara para su ‘Boca Chueca Tour’

El cantante de regional mexicano fue el primer artista latino que logra participar en un acto en español completo en este festival de música country, mientras que su compañera se convierte en la primera mujer latina que lo hace como invitada

Pero antes de iniciar el tour que abre brecha a partir del 2 de julio en el Mid State Fair de Paso Robles, CA, el próximo 7 de mayo Carin León subirá al escenario como invitado especial de la banda inglesa The Rolling Stones en su concierto de Glendale, Arizona en el State Farm Stadium, algo que lo tiene muy sorprendido y que ante los ojos de los demás eso es algo con lo que se confirma su estatura como figura líder en la expansión global de la música mexicana. “Hasta la fecha todavía no termino de digerir el momento que para mi como músico, independientemente del género, porque yo no soy de fijarme en los géneros sino el tipo de música, es algo que me hace sentir muy orgulloso porque creo que se está cumpliendo la misión y el mensaje colectivo de mi música que es quitarle las divisiones y los límites, del porqué yo escucho esta música y por qué tú escuchas esta otra”, explicó.

León está muy claro en que los límites se los pone uno mismo y es por esa razón que avanza sin mirar atrás ni el qué dirán los demás, pues es los que piensa que están equivocados los que suelen decir que “yo no voy colaborar con este tipo de música porque no tiene nada que ver con mi género”. Para Carin, esto va más allá, es también por el simple hecho de que son colegas y muchas veces los une una amistad. “Al fin de cuentas son mis amigos y todo se resume al buen gusto. Hoy en día que The Rolling Stones hayan volteado a ver a la música mexicana y que yo sea como ese enlace entre su música y el género me hace sentir orgullo y es una responsabilidad muy grande. Para ese dia tendremos una sorpresa bastante ‘cool’ donde explore ese lado que tanto me gusta porque crecí escuchando rock desde que esta chiquito y me va a tocar desahogar esa válvula que tengo desde hace muchísimos años de querer hacer rock”, expresó el músico que igualmente confesó que desde chico ha estado en contacto con el rock, incluso antes de inclinarse al regional mexicano, aldo que lo demostrará también en su nuevo disco.

“A mí me tocó fusionarlo con el regional mexicano y está también esta rola que estamos haciendo una versión de Bob Dylan para este concierto, también otra versión de Iron Maiden, y estamos también como explorando ese lado que es muy familiar para nosotros, pero que no habíamos tenido de mostrárselo al público, expresó.

Además de esa presentación especial como telonero de la banda de Mick Jagger y compañía , León tendrá la oportunidad de mostrar sus versiones anglosajonas en las ciudades europeas donde llegará su “Boca Chueca Tour 2024” en el mes de octubre y noviembre. Si a Carin le hubieran dicho durante la pandemia, que cuatro años más tarde se presentaría en concierto en ciudades como París, Londres o Amsterdam, jamás lo hubiera creído.

La salsa de Camilo y Carín León tiene un sabor que despierta sentimientos de ‘Una vida pasada’

Este par unen sus voces una vez más, pero esta vez al ritmo tropical de la salsa en uno de los tres temas que conforman el mini álbum del artista colombiano

Abr. 3, 2024

“La verdad que el crecimiento que ha tenido nuestra música es impresionante y ha sido solo voltear hacia adentro, a nuestros elementos que es algo que nos hace más mexicanos que nunca, voltear haci nuestra letras que era parte de nuestra campaña de cambiar ese chip de que nos podemos comer el mundo, solo hay que intentarlo no hay que ejecutarlo. Para mí Madrid es uno de los referentes más grandes que tiene mi música porque estoy bastante influenciado por la música de España”, dijo.

Una de las novedades de esta gira es que también están pensando llevar a esos mercados el concepto del palenque. “Ese es un concepto que estamos tratando de manejar, llevando nuestra cultura a todas partes, yendo a estos grandes teatros en Europa. De hecho estaremos grabando varias cosas, en un concepto diferente que habla mucho de Carin, con esa música romántica, un poco más acústico, un poco más de teatro, pero siempre tratando de subir la vara y asumir esas inquietudes que tenía de chamaco”, agregó, el artista que igualmente dijo que el repertorio variará de acuerdo al público y a lo que escucha y por eso están trabajando cada mercado individualmente.

Para su presentación en el BMO Stadium de Los Ángeles, Carin dice tener un espectáculo muy especial y otro para su presentación en la Final del campeonato de la Kings League en el estadio Azteca. “Los Ángeles y para toda la cultura mexicana es un punto de referencia y un epicentro grandísimo a nivel mundial y venir para acá se me vienen mil ideas a la cabeza por ser un centro cultural tan importante. Aqui podemos esperar desde canciones de Chalino Sánchez hasta canciones de Air Supply o algo de Hot Chili Peppers. Somo muy de improvisar sobre el escenario”, dijo.

Sobre su actuación en el estadio Azteca, fuera de la gira, Carín mencionó que antes estará trabajando esta semana en Colombia.”Estaremos en el Festival de Valledupar, después hacemos Medellín y al otro día regresamos a la Final de Kings League (4 de mayo) y como mexicanos nos encanta el futbol y estar conectados con eso y aparte para estar conectado con muchos amigos ahí’, dijo.

Finalmente, sobre su participación en Jimmy Kimmel Live desde Los Ángeles junto a Leon Bridges, Carón mostró su gran emoción de haber visto a tanta gente cantando sus canciones. “Ver a tanta gente que se juntó y compartirlo con Leon Bridges ese abrazo de la gente por todo lo que estamos haciendo por la música mexicana es algo emocionante. Ver a gente de muchas partes cantando tus canciones y que estos espacios sean importantes para la cultura popular de todo el mundo nos está dando una oportunidad a los mexicanos de mostrar nuevas propuestas se me hace muy interesante y augura muy buenos tiempos para la cultura mexicana”, señaló con evidente orgullo.

Tacos de canasta are portable, adaptable and ready to party

As soon as I booked my flights for a trip to Mexico City last December, I scouted out a food tour for the first morning of my vacation. I settled on one from Eat Like a Local — a salsa-soaked, taco-fueled 16-stop marathon featuring some of the best foods that Mexico City’s markets and street vendors have to offer. When I arrived in Mexico’s capital several weeks later, I woke up with energy and an appetite.

After a coffee and concha, the first savory stop of the day was a cart set up at a quiet, tree-lined intersection in the Condesa neighborhood. The vendor, Don Antonio, has been selling tacos de canasta , or basket tacos, for several decades, waking up in the wee hours of the morning to prepare them so they’re ready for hungry commuters.

As the name suggests, the warmed tortillas are stuffed with simple fillings, folded and piled high in a towel- and plastic-bag-lined basket. Unlike the more familiar tacos that are assembled and served a la minute, tacos de canasta are prepared in advance — and in bulk. This makes them popular among street food vendors and consumers: The former can transport hundreds of prepared tacos on the back of a bike, and the latter can enjoy a warm, quick snack or meal on the go.

Get the recipe: Tacos de Canasta (Basket Tacos)

We were given a choice of fillings: chicharrón, chorizo, adobo, refried beans or potato. Per our guide’s recommendation, I opted for the potato. Instantly, Don Antonio pulled one from his large picnic-style basket, obscured by a checkered cloth serving as a last line of heat-retaining defense, and handed it to me. The taco was small and still warm, the tortilla almost sealed together from the steam. I’ll admit that I wasn’t expecting much; I’d had hundreds of tacos before, good ones. The taco in my hand didn’t appear to be anything out of the ordinary.

One bite made me swallow my preconceived notions. The steamed corn tortilla was soft and fragrant, and the pillowy potato filling carried whispers of chile. It was life-affirmingly greasy. (Mexico City food writer Nicholas Gilman describes the oil they’re covered in as “good, red, chile-infused, soul-warming grease.”) The taco made a delightful vessel for the fresh green salsa, but it needed no accompaniment to shine. It was an edible reminder that great things come in simple and small packages. Despite earlier cautions to pace ourselves, when we were offered a second taco, I said yes without hesitation. By the end of the tour, it was still the best thing I’d eaten that day.

The exact origins of tacos de canasta are murky. According to “La Tacopedia,” an encyclopedia of Mexico’s many tacos compiled by Deborah Holtz and Juan Carlos Mena, the style of taco may date back to the pre-Hispanic age, with the modern basket replacing ancient containers and carriers such as chiquites and itacates.

But University of Toronto history professor and author Jeffrey M. Pilcher writes in “Planet Taco” that before basket tacos were a street food staple, they were called “tacos de mineros,” named after the miners that packed them as a convenient work lunch. Eventually, the miners brought them to Mexico City, where they first gained favor among the working class and in the early 20th century “spread across the country and up the social ladder,” according to Pilcher.

The same qualities that make tacos de canasta a quintessential street food — affordable, abundant, easily transportable — similarly make them a natural choice for parties and picnics (basket already included). Making tacos to order can be a logistical nightmare for a large group of people. These offer a way to feed everyone at the same time.

When cooking these tacos at home, there are a few things to consider. Although making them in a basket is fun and captures the essence of the tacos, they can also be kept in a large pot, or even a bamboo steamer. The layers of towels, plastic bags and parchment paper are what really keep the tacos insulated.

As with all taco styles , a great taco hinges on a great tortilla. Fresh, refrigerated corn tortillas are always preferable, because they soften more easily and are less likely to dry out. They also possess a more fragrant corn flavor — a subtle but important element when working with such few and simple ingredients. Fillings vary, and you can use any of your favorites, though those on the drier side are helpful to avoid spillage and mess. I went for both potato and chorizo fillings to provide variety, but a combination of the two is another classic option.

Once you prepare the fillings and an aromatic guajillo chile oil, assembly is a breeze. Working quickly to preserve the heat, you stuff the oven-warmed tortillas with a couple of tablespoons of filling, fold in half and add to the lined basket. After one layer of tacos goes down, you spread across a handful of thinly sliced onions and ladle over the hot chile oil. Traditionally, taqueros douse the tacos in ladles of hot oil (maybe it’s not a wonder why they taste so good), with the absorbent, grease-loving tortillas and several layers of thick parchment paper acting as a barrier to the plastic bag. But in a home kitchen, a few spoonfuls suffice.

When a few layers of tacos are nestled in the basket, the plastic bag is sealed, trapping the heat inside. I recommend laying another towel on top, just to ensure that no steam escapes. A half-hour wait is the minimum, but I’ve found that patience is rewarded with a softer, more flavorful taco.

Though I’ll admit that part of the delight of my first taco de canasta was eating new-to-me street food on a beautiful day in a new-to-me city, I’m finding a new dimension of enjoyment in doing the hard work in my kitchen and sharing the delicious results with my loved ones.

These tacos are my new go-to party food and will probably be found at all the potlucks, picnics and backyard parties in my future. I hope they make an appearance at yours, too.
