The situation for Latin artists today is very good: they have broken all geographical and linguistic boundaries and have managed to position themselves worldwide impressively, all thanks to the Latin Boom that is experiencing the music of our continent.
The last few years have seen a growing wave of new listeners worldwide who appreciate and enjoy Latin music. In the last few decades, great Latin American artists have been able to position themselves in the world market and have made Latin music mainstream.
At the same pace, they have been able to expand their concerts, turning them into tours that help them raise large sums of money thanks to the positioning of their name.
At JefeBet, we made a list of the Latin artists of the moment and how much each of them charge for their concerts.
Latin Artists Who Charge the Most for Concerts
Daddy Yankee, Wisin y Yandel, Christina Aguilera, Jennifer López, and Pitbull… We can include these artists in what we will call the first group in terms of renown and, therefore, the money they charge per performance. Each of these artists can charge around 1 million dollars in price per show. Definitely, this list of 5 artists have been able to take a good slice of the Latin Boom thanks to their talent and extensive experience in the music industry.
It is important to remember that Daddy Yankee is currently on his last tour before retiring from music.
Also, that singer Jennifer López is so positioned that she even participated as one of the artists presenting a 2020 Super Bowl halftime show alongside Shakira.
Then, there is a second group in which we can find other artists belonging to the Latin Boom of the first era, so to speak.
These include: Thalia, with around 900 thousand dollars; Ricky Martin, with 850 thousand dollars; Marc Anthony, with around 700 thousand dollars; Carlos Vives, with 600 thousand dollars; Enrique Iglesias, with 600 thousand dollars; Paulina Rubio, with 500 thousand dollars; and Shakira, with 300 thousand dollars. Although it is a little below the first group of artists who charge the most for their shows, it is still a great amount of money, very well deserved of course.
It is undeniable the career that Marc Anthony has made over the years thanks to his spectacular and prodigious voice.
On the other hand, Shakira is perhaps the most famous Latin American artist worldwide, she almost laid the foundations of Latin music in the mainstream worldwide somehow.
In the third group, we can find the greats of reggaeton, who nowadays have appropriated all this welcome of Latin music that is going around the world.
We have the first three of this group that earn the most income for their presentations: Bad Bunny, J.Balvin, and Nicky Jam charge around 500 thousand dollars per concert. They are followed by Maluma and Farruko who are paid around 300 thousand dollars, and Karol G, with 100 thousand dollars.
Bad Bunny, for example, is currently one of the best positioned Latin artists, even since 2020 he was already at the top, being one of the guests at the Super Bowl, accompanying J Balvin and singers Shakira and JLo.
And it is also undeniable the rise of the Colombian Karol G, also known as “La Bichota”, positioning herself as the most important Latin female artist of the moment.
What about you? Which of these artists would you pay to see live?
