Mexican music singer Chiquis is set to hit the road with her Diamantes Tour, produced by Live Nation, which will kick off May 30 in El Cajon, Calif. The Latin Grammy-winning artist will go on a 16-date trek in North America making stops in Houston, Atlanta and Mexico City before wrapping up Dec. 7 in Fresno, Calif.
“I am so ecstatic, and cannot wait to kick off my DIAMANTES TOUR alongside my band, Banda Abeja Reina,” Chiquis said in a statement. “I am ready to share this new, fresh and one-of-a-kind concert experience, carefully developed with love for my U.S. and Mexican fans. I want to personally invite all my Boss Bees to join me with their flashiest outfits on at every show, so we can shine bright, together!”
According to the press release, the tour will be a “celebration of empowerment, self-expression and unity” as Chiquis aims to create an “inclusive and uplifting atmosphere where fans can come together, connect, and bask in the joy of live music.” Throughout the tour, the Mexican-American singer will be accompanied by her lively 13-member band. Tickets will go on sale Friday, March 15, at 10 a.m. local time.
The Diamantes Tour announcement comes on the heels of Chiquis’ fifth studio album, Bee Side, released in December, which is powered by her traditional banda sound, but also finds her dabbling in electro-cumbia, rap and electro-pop.
