(NEWARK, NJ) -- Fuerza Regida, one of the most popular critically-acclaimed Mexican artists, announced his "Otra Peda Tour" which will bring the urban Mexican star to new cities and iconic venues. Fuerza Regida and Live Nation are continuing their tour production partnership, bringing a new 18-city "Otra Peda Tour" that kicks off in Los Angeles, CA, on July 15, and includes a stop at Prudential Center in Newark, NJ, on Friday, September 22, 2023.
"Fuerza Regida has been a huge example of this new movement's power globally," said Jorge Garcia, Global Touring Promoter, Live Nation. "It has been an honor to see their rapid growth from arena to stadium shows as a trusted partner."
Kicking off 2023 with its first #1 on Billboard’s Hot Latin Songs chart, “Bebe Dame” alongside Grupo Frontera, the month of March quickly proved to be one of the most significant months in Fuerza Regida’s already outstanding career. Most notably, the band accomplished an impressive feat, selling out the inaugural date of the “Otra Peda Tour” at BMO Stadium in Los Angeles (previously known as Banc of California Stadium), which is unquestionably a career-defining moment for the group, as it marks the first time that Fuerza Regida will perform live in a stadium.
In addition to the news that it sold out its first stadium show, the band also released 10 new music videos in March, including the hits “Dijeron Que No La Iba a Lograr” and “Que Se Te Quito”. Together these 10 clips have accumulated more than 50 million streams on YouTube, proving once again that this California-based group is one of the most popular and in-demand Latin music acts on the market today. Furthermore, the month brought other exciting news with the announcement of six new Latin American Music Award nominations, including Best Regional Mexican Duo or Group, Song of the Year for “Bebe Dame” with Grupo Frontera, and Best Regional Mexican Album for the massively successful project “Del Barrio Hasta Aquí, Vol 2.”
All these incredible new milestones succeed a remarkable 2022, a year during which the band realized the extraordinary 19-date “Del Barrio Hasta Aquí” tour, 12 of which were sold out within days of being announced, in addition to releasing 22 singles and two new albums, “Pa Que Hablen” and “Sigan Hablando,” which have garnered more than 517 million streams to date on Spotify alone.
Tickets will be available starting on Thursday, April 20, at 4:20pm at Ticketmaster.com. Fans can also purchase VIP Packages, which may include premium tickets, exclusive access to the Fuerza Regida pre-show soundcheck, Meet & Greet and photo op with Fuerza Regida, pre-show VIP lounge & more.

Born in San Bernardino, California, in 2017, Fuerza Regida is formed by lead singer “Jesús Ortiz Paz “JOP”, Samuel Jaimez” on requinto, Khrystian Ramos on guitar, and José García on tuba. The band achieved its first hits with the 2018 album “En Vivo Puros Corridos,” a project that produced the popular singles “Radicamos en South Central,” “Fume Uno,” and “El Fifty Pa Los Gringos.” With eight albums to its name, including the outstanding “Del Barrio Hasta Aquí” Vol. 2, Fuerza Regida has defied cultural barriers, bringing urban Mexican music to audiences that are no longer solely Mexican-American, and has been recognized with multiple nominations and awards.
