Bad Gyal Mexico 2026: Two Cities on Consecutive Nights
The Mexico City show comes first, on Thursday 22 October 2026 at the Palacio de los Deportes. The domed arena stands in the Magdalena Mixhuca sports complex, east of the city centre.
The tour then moves north to Monterrey, in Nuevo León state, for Friday 23 October 2026. That night is at the Auditorio Banamex, inside Parque Fundidora.
OCESA, Mexico’s largest live-entertainment promoter, runs both dates. Its event page links to Ticketmaster México as the seller.
The Latin American and North American legs of the tour were announced on 28 April 2026. Presales opened in early May and general sale followed on 8 May.
Who Bad Gyal Is
Bad Gyal is the stage name of Alba Farelo, a singer from Catalonia in north-eastern Spain. Her music blends reggaeton, dancehall and trap, often sung in Spanish.
Her second studio album, Más Cara, came out on 6 March 2026. The world tour of the same name opened in Barcelona on 20 March.
Mexican music outlet Indie Rocks names “Fiebre” and “Alocao” among her best-known songs. It also reports more than 85,000 tickets sold for her Spanish dates.
Mexico City Tickets at the Palacio de los Deportes
sdpnoticias published five price levels for the Mexico City night, and says they already include Ticketmaster charges. All peso figures here are converted at 17.74 pesos to the dollar, the rate on 28 September 2026.
Nivel E costs 855.50 pesos (about US$48) and Nivel D 1,227 pesos (about US$69). Nivel C costs 1,599 pesos (about US$90).
Nivel A costs 1,847.50 pesos (about US$104), and Nivel B is the top price at 2,343.50 pesos (about US$132). Indie Rocks lists the same range, with the two middle levels 50 centavos higher.
Ticketmaster México prices are set in pesos, so the dollar cost moves with the exchange rate. A foreign card may add its own conversion fee.
Monterrey Tickets at the Auditorio Banamex
Monterrey has six zones, according to sdpnoticias. Perfiles C is the cheapest at 979.50 pesos (about US$55), and Perfiles B costs 1,103.50 pesos (about US$62).
Perfiles costs about 1,228 pesos (about US$69) and Beyond 1,847.50 pesos (about US$104). Platinum and Platinum B share the top price of 2,095.50 pesos (about US$118).
The local listings site Stage Monterrey gives the same range and a 9 p.m. start. It also names the Auditorio Banamex box office as a second sales point.
The Venues and Getting There
The Palacio de los Deportes opened in 1968 for the Olympic basketball tournament. Its copper-clad dome, made of hyperbolic paraboloids, remains one of Mexico City’s best-known shapes.
It sits next to the Estadio GNP Seguros in the Magdalena Mixhuca complex, not far from the international airport. Metro Line 9 stops at Ciudad Deportiva and Velódromo, both close to the arena.
Monterrey’s Auditorio Banamex sits in Parque Fundidora, a former steelworks turned into a public park. Depending on the layout, it holds between 2,500 and 8,000 people.
Metrorrey Line 1 has a Parque Fundidora station on the park’s northern edge. On a Friday night, a ride app or taxi is the simplest way home.
Practical Tips for Foreigners
Buy only through Ticketmaster México or the venue box office. Resale tickets for arena shows in Mexico carry a real risk of duplicates or fakes.
The Mexico City show falls on a Thursday, so allow extra time for evening traffic. The Metro is often faster than a car when roads around the complex fill up.
Keep a photo ID with you and your phone charged if your ticket is on it. After the show, agree a pick-up point away from the main exits before ordering a ride.
What Has Not Been Announced
No support act had been named for either Mexican date by 28 September 2026. OCESA’s page gives no doors or show time for Mexico City.
The 9 p.m. Monterrey start comes from a listings site, not from OCESA. Check Ticketmaster México on the day for any change in timing.
