Alejo Igoa, the Argentine creator with the most-subscribed Spanish-language channel on YouTube, brings his live show to Colombia for the first time. “El Show de Alejo Igoa” plays Bogotá’s Movistar Arena on Saturday 21 November 2026 at 5 p.m. Bogotá time. Tuboleta sells tickets from COP 240,500 including fees, about US$72.

A boy from Misiones who became YouTube’s biggest Spanish voice

Alejo Igoa was born on 23 August 1996 in Posadas, a city in Misiones province in northeastern Argentina. He grew up in the small town of Concepción de la Sierra.

He opened his YouTube channel in 2014, after moving to Buenos Aires with savings that covered two months of rent. His videos mix challenges, games, humour and adventures with a regular group of friends.

The channel now has more than 121 million subscribers. Guinness World Records recognises it as the most-subscribed Spanish-language channel on YouTube. It holds a second record as the most-subscribed Spanish-language entertainment channel.

For parents who have never heard the name, the short version is simple. Millions of families across the Spanish-speaking world follow his channel. This show is the moment those videos step off the screen.

From seven nights in Buenos Aires to a five-city tour

The show opened in Buenos Aires, Argentina’s capital, earlier in 2026. It ran for seven sold-out performances and drew more than 70,000 people, according to Tuboleta and the Spanish daily Marca.

Igoa received both Guinness titles during that opening run. The next step is his first international tour, which visits five cities in five countries.

Marca lists Madrid, Santiago de Chile, Lima, Bogotá and Mexico City. Madrid comes first, at its own Movistar Arena on Sunday 25 October. Bogotá is the only Colombian date announced so far.

The tour follows a wider pattern. Creators who built their audiences online now fill the same arenas as pop singers. Families pay for a live version of something their children already watch for free at home.

What happens on stage for 90 minutes

The show lasts about 90 minutes. Alejo appears with Asbel Nazar, Valen Palladino, Delfi Palladino and Kevin Benedetti, friends who feature in his videos.

Each performance involves more than 150 people behind the scenes and 25 artists on stage. Marca reports a dance company of 20, with acrobatics, choreography, music and special effects.

The format is interactive. Some audience members are invited onto the stage to play games and take part in challenges. Marca reports that each country gets moments prepared for its local audience.

Alejo’s videos are in Spanish, and so is his presenting style. Children who speak some Spanish will follow the jokes most easily. The music, dance and acrobatics need no translation.

Ticket prices and how the Tuboleta sale works

Tuboleta, a leading Colombian ticketing platform, is the only authorised seller. The arena’s own event page links to the same sale. The organiser named on the ticket page is Breakfast TBL S.A.S.

Seats cost from COP 200,000 to COP 340,000 before fees, about US$60 to US$102. A service fee of COP 40,500 to COP 68,800 is added per ticket, about US$12 to US$21.

With fees, the cheapest seats on the second level cost COP 240,500, about US$72. The front Tribuna Fan Sur section costs COP 408,800, about US$123.

These figures use a rate of about 3,334 Colombian pesos per US dollar on 1 October 2026. Tuboleta warns that prices may change with demand.

A presale for Movistar Total customers ran from 7 to 9 September. General sale opened on 9 September at 10 a.m. Buyers can take a maximum of six tickets per purchase.

Foreign bank cards are accepted. Tickets paid with an international card are handed over only at the box office, and only to the cardholder. Visitors should plan to collect them in person at the arena.

Rules for children and families

The event is listed as suitable for all ages. Every child over two years old needs a ticket and takes a seat. All seating is numbered.

Anyone under 18 must enter with a responsible adult. The arena sets alcohol-free zones at events that admit minors.

Tuboleta’s terms say women in a visibly advanced stage of pregnancy will not be admitted, following guidance from the authorities. Families expecting a baby should keep this in mind before buying.

Sections 201 and 219 on the second level are sold as partial view. Stage screens and lighting may block part of the stage from those seats.

Visitors who use a wheelchair or have limited mobility should tell Tuboleta when buying. The arena keeps a floor area for people with disabilities, arranged according to each event’s layout.

Getting to Movistar Arena

Movistar Arena stands at Carrera 30 and Calle 63, in Teusaquillo, a central district of Bogotá. It was built in 1973 as the El Campín indoor coliseum and renovated in 2018.

The arena seats about 14,000 people. It sits beside El Campín, the city’s main football stadium.

The simplest route is TransMilenio, Bogotá’s network of rapid buses on dedicated lanes. The arena recommends the Movistar Arena station, with Campín–UAN as a second option on the same avenue.

City buses of the SITP network stop along Carrera 30 and Calle 63. Taxis and ride apps drop passengers at marked points near the main entrances. The arena advises using trusted apps or officially registered taxis.

Parking on site is reserved for suite and box holders. Drivers can use the partner car parks at El Campín stadium, north and south, and at the Palacio de los Deportes.

Planning the afternoon in Bogotá

Bogotá lies about 2,600 metres above sea level, so afternoons are mild and evenings turn cool. A warm layer helps on the walk home after 6:30 p.m.

Umbrellas are not allowed inside the arena. A light rain jacket is the practical choice in November, when showers are common.

Bags may measure no more than 20 by 20 centimetres. Food, drinks, bottles, selfie sticks and cameras with interchangeable lenses stay outside. The arena suggests arriving at least one hour early for the security check.

Tickets arrive in the Tuboleta Pass app. A Tuboleta box office sits on the right side of the building for collections and questions.

For many families, this will be their children’s first arena show. A little planning on transport, bags and timing keeps the afternoon relaxed.
