Carnaval de Barranquilla 2025 Honors Shakira & More Uplifting Moments in Latin Music
Carnaval de Barranquilla 2025 honors Shakira and more uplifting moments in Latin music this week.
This year, the festival — which kicks off March 1 — has adopted the Colombian hitmaker’s iconic line “ En Barranquilla se baila así,” from “Hips Don’t Lie,” as its official slogan. According to a press release, the Tacos Bombero 408 team served more than 1,000 fresh meals, “bringing hope and gratitude to those on the frontlines of the wildfire battle.” About the initiative, Del Villar said, “It’s the least we can do for those putting their lives on the line for us.” In solidarity with the community of Los Angeles, artists such as Alejandro Fernández, Maná, Peso Pluma, Chiquis and Fuerza Regida have all stepped up to help the countless of Angelenos who have been impacted by the ongoing devastation.
