Carín León Becomes First Latino Artist to Headline Las Vegas’ Sphere, Shows Set for 2026

Carín León is set to become the first Latino artist to play at Las Vegas’ Sphere, with three dates scheduled for next year.

León will head over to Sin City to perform at the venue on Sept. 11-13, 2026, as part of Las Vegas’ Mexican Independence Day celebration. The limited engagement will be produced by AEG Presents and utilize Sphere’s hi-res LED display to create an immersive experience.

The Música Mexicana artist makes the announcement a year after his fourth album “Boca Chueca, Vol. 1” was released in May 2024. He then announced an international tour in support of the record, making debut appearances at both Coachella and Stagecoach before hitting the road for stops in North America and Europe. The tour included a night at Madison Square Garden in New York City and another at BMO Stadium in Los Angeles.

Last month, León earned a chart-topping single with “Me Está Doliendo,” a collaborative ballad with Alejandro Fernández. The track, which translates to “It’s Hurting Me” in English, hit No. 1 on the Billboard Regional Mexican Airplay chart and was included on a special edition of his album “Palabra de To’s.”

León joins a growing list of artists to stage residencies at Sphere, which opened in Sept. 2023 with U2 performing a 40-show stretch entitled “U2:UV Atchung Baby Live at Sphere.” In the time since, Sphere has played host to residencies from Dead & Co., Eagles, Anyma and Phish.

Presales for León’s Sphere shows will begin on Sept. 23 at 12 p.m. PT. General onsale starts on Sept. 26 at 12 p.m. PT.
