With hits like “Mi Gente,” “Ginza,” and “Reggaeton,” Balvin is a perfect fit for Baja Beach Fest’s high-energy, vibrant atmosphere. His Friday night performance is sure to set the tone for an unforgettable weekend.
Don Omar: Reggaeton Legend
Saturday night will see the return of Don Omar, one of the pioneers of reggaeton and a living legend in Latin music.

His rise in the Latin music scene has been rapid, and he’s quickly becoming one of the most vital stars in Latin hip-hop.

Los Tucanes De Tijuana: Local Heroes
Adding some regional flavor to the festival, Los Tucanes De Tijuana, one of Mexico’s most iconic norteño bands, will also take the stage. With Tijuana just 30 minutes away from Rosarito Beach, Los Tucanes De Tijuana bring an extra layer of authenticity to the festival. Their gritty, melodic tales of life in northern Mexico have paved the way for modern-day corridos, and their performance will certainly be a hit with fans of traditional Mexican music.
