Morat Announces Stadium Tour in Latin America
Just as Morat is wrapping up its U.S. tour dates, the Colombian band has unveiled dates to its upcoming stadium trek in Latin America. After a performance in Madrid on June 21, the Colombian band will begin the 20-date stint in cities such as Bogotá, Lima, Buenos Aires and Quito before wrapping up with four shows in Mexico in December.
Dubbed Los Estadios: Antes de Que Amanezca Tour, the pop band’s new trek comes on the heels of its touring success with more than 1 million tickets sold in 2023, according to Universal Music Latino, which led to the Colombian band’s upcoming first-ever stadium tour in Latin America.
“We have a wishlist of things we wanted to try to incorporate into the show,” Morat — composed of Juan Pablo Isaza, Juan Pablo Villamil, Martín Vargas and Simón Vargas — tells Billboard. “One thing we do a lot of is also think about the shows as moments so, that each song has something special, some moment, some little thing. And obviously our management team was hysterical because that obviously directly impacts the budget, but we were eager to have every one of the songs have something and at the end we did something that I think is very special. Our motto today is ‘We’re losing money, but let’s go down in history.'”
In 2016, the band, which got its start hand-delivering CDs in its native Bogotá, Colombia, and playing gigs in local bars, released its first album, Solo El Amor Y Sus Efectos Secundarios. That same year, they received a Latin Grammy best new artist nomination. Morat’s latest album, Si Ayer Fuera Hoy, scored the band its first entry on the Billboard Latin Pop Albums chart, where it peaked at No. 18 on the tally dated Nov. 19, 2022.
