Mexican singer Ana Gabriel brings her Claro de Luna tour to Lima next April. Tickets are on sale, but the venue has been closed by local authorities since September.

Ana Gabriel, the Mexican singer-songwriter, plays Arena 1 in Lima on Wednesday, 21 April 2027, according to Ticketmaster Peru. General sale is listed for Saturday, 17 October, after a bank presale on 15 and 16 October.

The show suits US fans of Latin ballads who are ready to travel, because she has toured American arenas before. The catch is the venue, which the district of San Miguel closed on 24 September, and no reopening has been confirmed.

Why This Show Matters to US Fans

Ana Gabriel is a Mexican singer-songwriter whose career spans more than five decades, according to Peruvian outlet Infobae. Her best-known songs include Simplemente Amigos, Quién Como Tú, Luna and Ay Amor, the same outlet reported.

A 2025 US leg of the Claro de Luna tour opened in Portland on 28 August 2025, Acrisure Arena in California said. That page also claimed more than 40 million records sold, a figure that could not be verified independently.

The Lima concert is part of the Claro de Luna Tour 2027, which runs from February to December 2027, Infobae reported. She announced the tour in a live social media broadcast in September 2026, according to the same report.

Mexican newspaper Crónica listed three Mexican dates: Guadalajara on 5 February, Mexico City on 11 February and Monterrey on 20 February 2027. It said the tour also visits South American cities and Puerto Rico, unnamed, so any 2027 US dates were not checked.

La República, a Lima daily, wrote that her previous Lima show was almost three years before October 2026. The return was announced in October 2026, with a bank presale starting on 15 October.

Schedule and Start Time

Ticketmaster Peru lists the Lima show for Wednesday, 21 April 2027, at 9 p.m. local time. A door time is not stated on the page, and no opening act has been named in the reports checked.

Peru does not use daylight saving time, so Lima stays on UTC minus five hours all year. In April the US East Coast is on daylight time, so 9 p.m. in Lima is 10 p.m. in New York.

Chicago is on the same clock as Lima in April, because both sit at UTC minus five during that month. Los Angeles is two hours behind Lima, so the show would begin at 7 p.m. Pacific time.

Wednesday is a working day in Lima, so evening traffic toward the coast may be heavy. Plan dinner and transport around the 9 p.m. start, and check the Ticketmaster page for any later change to the time.

Tickets and How to Buy Them Safely

Ticketmaster Peru, at ticketmaster.pe, is the only seller named by the organiser, Infobae and El Comercio for this show. The presale for BBVA bank cardholders ran on 15 and 16 October, with a 15% discount for individual credit and debit cards.

General sale is set for Saturday, 17 October, on the same site, and the page gives no opening hour. The listing says presale ran until stock ran out, so some sections may already be tight.

Ticketmaster’s page splits the 5,300 tickets into three zones: Platinum with 2,750 seats, VIP with 1,750 and Tribuna with 800. It says prices are shown at checkout and include the ticketing commission and legal taxes, but it shows no amounts in advance.

Each buyer may purchase up to six tickets per transaction, according to the Ticketmaster listing. Tickets are electronic, and the page warns that altering an e-ticket or printing several copies will block entry.

An optional Fast Pass add-on offers a shorter entry queue, sold only during checkout and only for presale or regular-price tickets. It cannot be bought on its own, and holders must carry both the ticket and the pass.

The page recommends the concert for ages 14 and over, and children from six may enter with an adult. Each child needs a separate ticket in the same sector as the accompanying adult, according to the listing.

Peruvian law 29973 gives accredited people with disabilities a discount on one ticket, which is personal and cannot be transferred. Applications go through the Fan Support channel named on the Ticketmaster page.

Buy only on ticketmaster.pe, because the page says Ticketmaster takes no responsibility for tickets bought outside its system. Avoid resale offers on social media, since a copied e-ticket can be refused at the gate.

One page load for this guide showed a suspicious-activity banner and a notice that no payment methods suited the visitor’s country. That may be a quirk of an automated check, so US fans should test whether a US card works.

The Arena 1 Closure Question

San Miguel closed Arena 1 on Thursday, 24 September, after the Robbie Williams show, América TV and Infobae reported. Officials said the promoter failed to carry out its evacuation plan and staff blocked the Belén bridge, pushing people to the cliffs.

The municipality said the venue had a permit for 30,400 people but that its infrastructure cannot safely handle that many. It referred the case to the prosecutor for crime prevention and to Indecopi, the consumer protection agency, América TV reported.

Infobae reported on 28 September that the closure remained in place and that the municipality had set no deadline to lift it. Arena’s president, Doris Espinoza, said events at the venue were on hold and asked for an official statement from the district.

The same report listed Blessd on 29 October, Eros Ramazzotti on 24 November and other shows as undecided. It said one show, Trueno on 1 October, had already moved to the Parque de la Exposición.

Peru21 reported on 8 May 2026 that the Navy warned of unstable ground and two exit bridges at Costa Verde venues. The Navy also said attendees had escaped over the cliffs after a 2023 event, according to that report.

Ticketmaster still lists Arena 1 for this show, and no later report of the closure being lifted was found. If the closure stays, the promoter would have to move the date or the venue, so watch the Ticketmaster page.

Getting to Arena 1

Ticketmaster gives the address as Costa Verde s/n, in the San Miguel district on Lima’s coastal strip. The page lists no parking, shuttle or transport information, so those details are unconfirmed.

The Belén pedestrian bridge and the Subida Independencia road were the main exit routes named after the September incident. Expect crowded paths at the end of the show, and plan to leave with a fixed meeting point.

Jorge Chávez International Airport is Lima’s main gateway, and the State Department warns of robberies on routes to and from it. It says thieves have broken car windows in traffic, so keep bags in the boot or out of sight.

The State Department advises using the authorised airport taxi booths, which charge flat fares, or app-based taxis and hotel-arranged cars. It says to avoid hailing unknown taxis in the street.

A hotel in Miraflores or San Isidro keeps the late ride short, though room prices were not checked. Ask the hotel to book a licensed car for the return trip after the show.

Safety and Costs for Visitors

The US State Department rates Peru at Level 2, exercise increased caution, citing crime, civil unrest and terrorism risks. The advisory page showed a 16 May 2025 issue date, so check it again before you fly.

It says crime is common, violent crime often happens even in daylight, and the risk rises at night. Its Level 4 do-not-travel areas are the Colombia border in Loreto and the VRAEM valleys, far from Lima.

Protests can close roads and public transport without warning, according to the same advisory. Leave extra time on show day, because a blocked road could delay the trip to the Costa Verde.

US citizens need no visa for tourist stays of less than 90 days, according to the State Department’s Peru country page. Your passport must be valid for six months from entry and have one blank page for the stamp.

The country page lists no vaccination requirement for entry, but it names yellow fever among diseases present in Peru. Check the CDC’s Peru guidance before you go, especially if you plan to visit jungle regions.

The US Embassy in Lima is at Avenida La Encalada, block 17, in Surco, and answers emergencies at +51 1 618 2000. Keep a copy of your passport and a second payment card in a separate bag.

No ticket price has been confirmed, so any budget is a guess until Ticketmaster shows the amounts at checkout. At the exchange rate of 3.43 soles per US dollar on 17 October, every 100 soles is about US$29.

What It Means for You

For a US fan, the Ana Gabriel Lima concert is a long trip for one evening, so plan several days. Book flights and hotels only after the venue question is settled, or choose refundable fares.

Buy through Ticketmaster Peru alone, and screenshot your order and the date, time and venue shown at purchase. Any change to the venue or start time should appear on that page and in the confirmation email first.

Check the State Department advisory the week you travel and enrol in its Smart Traveler programme for alerts. Plan the ride home before the show, because the exit paths at the venue were the centre of the September dispute.

What Is Not Known

Ticket prices, current availability and whether a US card is accepted could not be confirmed from the Ticketmaster page. The door time, the opening act and any shuttle or parking arrangements have not been published.

Whether Arena 1 will reopen before 21 April 2027 is unconfirmed, because no report after 28 September was found. It is also unclear whether the promoter will move the show to another Lima venue, as Trueno’s concert was moved.

Ticketmaster names Shows & Sports Entertainment S.A.C. as the organiser, while Infobae and El Comercio name F&M Entertainment as the producer. Neither company could be reached, so it is unclear which one holds the licence.
