The two Latin music superstars announced on March 4, 2020 that they're embarking on a joint tour. Enrique Iglesias and Ricky Martin shared the news with a group of reporters at a press conference in Los Angeles. The two will also be joined by Sebastián Yatra.

"We're both putting out new music too," Iglesias said during the event, adding in Spanish, "This is a historic moment and we've been wanting to do this for a long time... The show will be spectacular."

Martin added, "There's nothing like standing on stage and feeling the power of thousands of people and getting up and to dance."  The two also mentioned the possibility of recording a song together, explaining that they have been talking about collaborating for a long time.

Following the announcement, Yatra exclusively told ET, "It’s a huge dream come true and one that I never imagined was possible with two of my biggest idols, the people who have influenced me so much over the years. We're going to enjoy this tour and I'm grateful to Ricky and Enrique. I'm ready to learn from them, see more of the United States and enjoy this special moment." [6]
