RUMBAZO 2024: A Music Extravaganza Headlined by Nicky Jam, Luis R Conriquez, Codiciado, and Arcángel
RUMBAZO 2024
¡Música Maestros! Gather up, mi gente because Mexican Independence Day is about to heat up Las Vegas with the ritmo Latino. The RUMBAZO festival, in colaboración with Billboard, is jetting back to Vegas this September 13-14, promising un fin de semana filled with música, food, arte, y más waiting for you.
This marks the third edition of RUMBAZO, transforming the Downtown Las Vegas Events Center into an epic celebration for the Grito and Mexican Independence Day on Sept. 15 and 16. As per its ritual, the fest will star headliners such as Nicky Jam, Luis R Conriquez, Codiciado, and Arcángel.
Organizers, beaming with excitement, declared the third RUMBAZO as their best event yet in their recent press release, especially crediting the partnership with Billboard. They also touched on how Las Vegas has become the prime destination for El Grito weekend, developing RUMBAZO as an essential Mexican Independence Day celebration.
Dana Droppo, Billboard’s jefe of brand couldn’t hold back her pride, expressing how thrilled she is to expand Billboard’s influence in the Latin market especially with their most significant live show in Vegas, marking the start of Hispanic Heritage Month.
Expressing the same excitement, Leila Cobo, Billboard’s chief for Latin content, emphasized on the task to perfectly blend the new Mexican música by Luis R Conriquez and Codiciado, along with reggaetón legends, Nicky Jam, and Arcángel for two enchanting musical nights for fans.
A nod to Estrella Jalisco, the lovely folks sponsoring this year’s RUMBAZO. This year, the festival combines the heavyweights of Música Mexicana and Latin urban, who’ve already captivated our hearts with collabs like “Como el Viento” featuring Nicky Jam and Luis R Conriquez.
“Respeto mucho la música regional mexicana. It’s not from my cultura — in Puerto Rico we enjoy more salsa, merengue, and música del Caribe — But living ten years in Colombia, this genre became un tesoro for me,” says Nicky Jam about his first dive into Mexican music.
This year’s RUMBAZO lineup presents an array of artists, each a maestro fueled with hit records and accolades in the music industry.
Nicky Jam, celebrated as a pioneer of reggaetón, blessed us with number one hits like “El Perdón” with Enrique Iglesias, “Hasta el Amanecer,” and a trophy room filled with a Latin Grammy and 13 Billboard Latin Music Awards.
Luis R Conriquez’s record “Si No Quieres No” with Neton Vega lit up the Billboard Hot 100 recently. Conriquez gained popularity working with La Adictiva on “JGL” and Peso Pluma on “Siempre Pendientes.”
Codiciado’s “Vamos Aclarando las Cosas” and “Ando Enfocado,” charmed the Hot Latin Songs chart, and collaborations with Grupo Firme, Natanael Cano, Santa Fe Klan, and Peso Pluma solidified her spot in the industry.
Arcángel, reggaetón and Puerto Rican trap maestro, has dished out six albums in the top 10 of the Top Latin Albums chart after branching out from De la Ghetto, working with grandes like Bad Bunny, Feid, and Rauw Alejandro.
