The Colombian reggaetón singer Blessd is booked to play Lima, Peru, on Thursday 29 October 2026. Ticketmaster, the seller for the date, lists Arena 1 in San Miguel and a 9 p.m. start.

Blessd Lima 2026: Thursday 29 October at Arena 1

The Blessd Lima 2026 concert is set for Thursday 29 October at Arena 1. The venue stands on the Circuito de Playas, the beach road along the Costa Verde in the San Miguel district.

The show belongs to his El Peor Hombre del Mundo Tour Latam. Ticketmaster lists a 9 p.m. start in Lima time, and Peru stays five hours behind GMT all year.

Peruvian outlets reported the date in mid-June, ahead of a BBVA card presale on 18 and 19 June. General sale opened on Saturday 20 June at 10 a.m.

Why the Arena 1 Date Is Now in Doubt

The San Miguel municipality closed Arena 1 Park on Thursday 24 September 2026. It cited problems with evacuation routes and the unauthorised closure of pedestrian exits after Robbie Williams’s first show.

The British singer’s second Lima night was cancelled hours before it was due to start. His promoter, ONE Entertainment, said it would be rescheduled and that refunds were available through the ticket seller.

On 26 September, Infobae reported that the Blessd date was on hold along with the other Arena 1 shows. Doris Espinoza, president of Arena, the Lima Chamber of Commerce’s entertainment sector, asked the municipality for talks.

One booking has already moved. Trueno’s 1 October concert went to the Parque de la Exposición, while Ken-Y on Friday 30 October is also waiting.

Who Blessd Is

Blessd is the stage name of Stiven Mesa Londoño, born in 2000 in Itagüí, just south of Medellín. He works in reggaetón, Latin trap and Latin R&B.

His breakthrough was Medallo, recorded with Justin Quiles and Lenny Tavárez, which reached number one in Colombia. He has also recorded with Maluma, Feid, Myke Towers and Ryan Castro.

Other songs named in the Lima announcements include Mírame, Instagram and Ojitos Rojos. Quiles and Tavárez are themselves booked at Arena 1 on 12 December, another date now waiting on the venue.

Blessd Ticket Prices in Soles and Dollars

Ticketmaster sells three zones, all standing or unnumbered. Platinum costs S/ 280 (about US$83), VIP S/ 215 (about US$63) and Tribuna S/ 110 (about US$32).

The dollar figures use 3.393 soles to the US dollar, the rate on 28 September 2026. Ticketmaster says its prices include the ticketing commission and taxes.

BBVA cardholders were offered 15 percent off in the presale. That put Platinum at S/ 243 (about US$72), VIP at S/ 187 (about US$55) and Tribuna at S/ 97 (about US$29).

Buyers may take up to ten tickets each. Children aged six and over need their own ticket and must come with a responsible adult.

Arena 1 and the Costa Verde

Arena 1 sits on the Costa Verde, the strip of beach road below Lima’s coastal cliffs. It belongs to the Arena 1 Park site in San Miguel, north-west of Miraflores along the same shore.

A pedestrian bridge links the site with San Miguel above. Espinoza has asked who ordered it blocked while crowds were leaving the Williams show.

Taxis and ride apps are the simplest way to reach the coast road at night. Plan the return trip before the night, because the exits were the core of the closure dispute.

Practical Points for Foreign Fans

Buy only through Ticketmaster Peru, the seller named for the date. Keep the purchase e-mail, since any refund or venue change would run through the seller.

Check the listing again in the week before the show. A move to another Lima venue, as with Trueno, would change both route and travel time.

What Has Not Been Announced

No support act, doors time or set length had been published by 28 September 2026. The vendor page also carried no notice of the closure.

Neither the promoter nor the municipality had given a date for Arena 1 to reopen. Whether the Blessd show stays, moves or is postponed remains open.

Ticketmaster names Shows & Sports Entertainment S.A.C. as the organiser. OIGO reported F&M Entertainment as the promoter of the Lima date.
