Tecate Emblema 2024: Day 1 Delivers Dancing, a Birthday Celebration and an Oscar Winner
From Sam Smith to Bu Cuaron, these were the best moments from Friday (May 17) at the Tecate Emblema festival in Mexico City.
On Friday the festival gathered 59,000 attendees, according to promoter Ocesa, who took in shows from Måneskin, Marshmello, Belanova, Noah Cyrus, Paty Cantú, Esteman, Matisse, RIIZE, Monsieur Periné, Elena Rose, Nicole Zignago, Alex Ponce and Ácido Pantera, all of whom brought the best of their repertoire to the three stages set up at the former F1 venue in the Mexican capital. Another female-led act who stood out during Day 1 was Colombian band Monsieur Periné and vocalist Catalina García, who seduced the audience with rhythms of swing, pop, salsa and even a bit of jazz, in songs like “Volverte a Ver,” “Mundo Paralelo,” “Mi Libertad” and “Nuestra Canción.” Reunited after a six-year hiatus, the Mexican electro-pop trio Belanova — taking the stage at a second festival in Mexico, after Vive Latino — was one of the most celebrated acts on the bill, making thousands dance to the rhythm of hits like “Aún Te Vas,” “Baila Mi Corazón,” “Me Pregunto,” “Cada Que” and the most anticipated of the night, “Rosa Pastel.”
