Bésame Mucho Festival cancels 2024 Los Angeles event featuring Shakira and Pitbull

The Bésame Mucho Festival has canceled its 2024 Los Angeles edition, originally scheduled for December 21 at Dodger Stadium. The event was set to feature artists like Shakira, Pitbull, and Los Tigres del Norte. The cancellation follows Shakira's announcement of changes to her U.S. tour, which will now take place next year. The festival cited "circumstances beyond our control" for the decision. Despite the Los Angeles cancellation, the festival will still hold its Austin event on April 5, 2024, featuring artists such as Carín León and Peso Pluma.
