US EditionBad Bunny Says Goodbye to Puerto Rico in One Final Concert After a Historic Residency
Bad Bunny's 30-concert residency celebrated Puerto Rican culture and resilience, attracting around 500,000 attendees and generating an estimated $733 million, according to Gaither International.
- Bad Bunny concluded his groundbreaking 30-show residency in Puerto Rico with a final performance that coincided with the commemoration of eight years since Hurricane Maria struck the island.
- The residency followed the 2017 Category 4 storm that killed an estimated 2,975 people and devastated Puerto Rico's electrical grid.
- Saturday's concert was open only to Puerto Rican residents and featured collaborations with local musicians and surprise celebrity guests.
- A report released on September 11 revealed that nearly 92% of the grid repair initiatives remained unfinished, with $3.7 billion of allocated funds still unspent.
- While the concert celebrated Puerto Rican pride and resilience, power grid problems persist, and Bad Bunny will start a worldwide tour in December excluding the U.S. due to immigrant arrest concerns.
