RBD concert chronology |
The Soy Rebelde Tour (English: I'm Rebellious Tour) was the fifth and final planned concert tour by Mexican pop group RBD. [1] [2] The tour had stops in North and South America, beginning on August 25, 2023, at Sun Bowl Stadium in El Paso, Texas, concluding on December 21, 2023, at Estadio Azteca, Mexico City. [3] [4]
This tour marked the group's first since their Gira Del Adiós (2008) took place fifteen years prior, which commemorated a previous disbanding. [5] The sold out tour became the fourth highest-grossing tour by a Latin artist of all time with over $231 million in box office receipts. [6]
Following their successful virtual quarantine concert in 2020, rumors about a reunion began. [7] On December 19, 2022, RBD's official social media outlets uploaded a video captioned "Soy Rebelde!!!". [8] The members, minus Alfonso Herrera, changed their profile pictures to a black background with the band's logo in white. [9] Along with the video post, a website was created that showcased a countdown and a sign-up form, along with the phrase “Prepara tu corbata, Enero 19 2023” (“prepare your tie, January 19, 2023”). [10] [11]
On January 19, 2023, a 3-minute video confirming a reunion tour was displayed in public spaces across such cities as Los Angeles, New York City, Chicago, São Paulo, Río de Janeiro and Mexico City where fans gathered to witness the announcement. [12] [13] Titled Soy Rebelde Tour, it initially comprised 26 dates and was scheduled to begin on August 25, 2023, from El Paso and continue throughout the U.S., Brazil and Mexico, ending on December 2, 2023, in Mexico City. [14]
Due to a massive demand for concert dates in more Latin American countries, [15] the group surprised fans in Colombia with an announcement on February 13, 2023. [16] On the scheduled day, a concert date in Medellín was finally announced, with fans reuniting at the Provenza sector to watch the announcement via video broadcast. [17]
The announcement of the tour led to a commercial success. [18] On January 20, a second date was added in Los Angeles, [19] while additional dates in New York City, Chicago, Glendale, Miami, Edinburg and San Diego were added five days later. [20] [21] The group scheduled a total of four concerts at the BMO Stadium in Los Angeles. [22] A new date in Monterrey was announced on January 27, and consequently, another one in Guadalajara on January 31. [23] [24] On March 23, a third date was revealed for Monterrey. [25] It also broke records for the most shows on a single tour at the Foro Sol, with six overall, and revenue sales in Mexico City, previously held by Bad Bunny with The World's Hottest Tour and Daddy Yankee with La Última Vuelta World Tour. [26]
During the presale in Brazil, all tickets available were sold under six minutes. [27] The general sale in São Paulo was met with "overwhelming" demand, with approximately 600,000 people trying to get tickets, prompting the addition of a second and third dates. [28] On March 27, a second date for Rio de Janeiro was announced along with three brand new dates in São Paulo, with a fourth one at the Allianz Parque and two additional at the Estádio do Morumbi in order to fulfill the demand. [29] The CEO of CTS Eventim in Brazil, responsible for selling tickets, has said this was the biggest challenge the company has faced in the country. [30]
For the initial concert in Medellín, a presale was scheduled to happen on February 15, with the general sale to ocurre two days later. [31] However, during the presale 225,000 people attempted to purchase tickets, causing the website of eTicket Colombia to crash. [32] On February 16 and 20, a second and third date were added, respectively. [33] [34] The first two dates were sold out within hours of tickets being released, with the third date being sold out in 50 minutes. [35] On February 25, a fourth and final date in Medellín was announced. [36] [37] Furthermore, flights and hotel room prices soared for the concert dates. [38]
