Los Bukis, the Mexican band fronted by Marco Antonio Solís, bring their farewell-titled show to a Mexico City stadium in December. The date falls on the feast of the Virgin of Guadalupe, when millions of pilgrims head to the city’s Basilica.

Los Bukis play Mexico City’s Estadio GNP Seguros on Saturday, 12 December 2026, on their ¡Tuyos Por Siempre! tour. The promoter OCESA lists the show on general sale, with Ticketmaster México as the online seller.

For US fans, the trip pairs a reunion-era stadium show with the start of Mexico’s December holiday season. OCESA’s listing for the Guadalajara area also spans two dates, Friday, 18 and Saturday, 19 December.

Who Los Bukis Are and Why It Matters

Los Bukis are a Mexican band fronted by singer Marco Antonio Solís. SoFi Stadium near Los Angeles names the line-up as Solís with Joel, Chivo, Roberto, Javier, Pepe and Pedro.

The band returned in 2021 after more than two decades on hiatus, SoFi Stadium said in December 2025. That year, the stadium says, Los Bukis became the first Latin artists to perform there.

SoFi Stadium also credits the reunion with nearly 40 sold-out stadium concerts since 2021. Its February 2026 shows carried the same ¡Tuyos Por Siempre! title and were billed as a musical farewell.

The Mexico City date brings that farewell title to a home crowd in the capital. For Mexican American families, it lands in the weeks when many travel south for the holidays.

Tickets and How to Buy

OCESA, the promoter that lists Estadio GNP Seguros among its venues, names Ticketmaster México as the online seller. Its event page shows the general sale open for both Mexico City and Guadalajara.

ViveUSA, a Mexican site, reported HSBC presales on Thursday, 24 and Friday, 25 September, then a general sale on Saturday, 26 September. It said the band announced the dates as the great closing of a cycle.

Before the show, tickets are also sold at gate 7 of the Palacio de los Deportes, next to the stadium. That box office opens Tuesday to Saturday from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m., the stadium says.

On show day, the box office moves to gate 6 of the Ciudad Deportiva Magdalena Mixhuca sports complex. It is open from 10 a.m. to 10 p.m. that day.

Prices for Mexico City have not been published on the promoter’s page, and figures circulating online differ. Check the final price on Ticketmaster México, including any service fees, before paying.

Buy only from Ticketmaster México or the stadium box office. Tickets offered on social media or outside the venue may be fake or already used.

The Venue and How to Get There

Estadio GNP Seguros, long known as the Foro Sol, sits inside the Autódromo Hermanos Rodríguez racetrack in the Iztacalco borough. Its address is Viaducto Río de la Piedad, in the Granjas México district of eastern Mexico City.

The nearest Metro stations are Ciudad Deportiva and Puebla, both on Line 9, the stadium says. Expect long queues on the platforms after the show, when most of the crowd leaves at once.

Parking is reached through gates 7, 8, 9 and 15 of the racetrack and the sports complex. The stadium warns that entrances can change with each event’s layout.

Rideshare apps are the simplest option for visitors staying in Roma, Condesa or Polanco. Agree on a pickup point away from the main exits, where traffic backs up after big shows.

Bags may not exceed 10 by 15 by 30 centimetres, about 4 by 6 by 12 inches. The stadium prefers clear plastic, vinyl or PVC bags.

Food, drinks, umbrellas, cigarettes, vapes and lighters are banned at the gates. Professional cameras, selfie sticks, laptops and tablets are also on the stadium’s banned list.

Guadalupe Day on the Same Saturday

Saturday, 12 December is the feast of the Virgin of Guadalupe, Mexico’s patron saint. Pilgrims converge on the Basilica of Guadalupe in the Gustavo A. Madero borough, in the north of the city.

In 2025, the borough reported 12.8 million pilgrims at the Basilica by the evening of 12 December. Expansión Política and Chilango, two Mexican news sites, carried the borough’s figure.

The Basilica and the stadium are in different parts of the city, but roads and the Metro can be busy all day. Allow extra time, and avoid routes along the Calzada de Guadalupe.

Visitors who want both experiences can see the Basilica in the morning and head to the stadium later. Bring water and a charged phone, since queues can be long at both.

The Guadalajara Dates

OCESA lists the same show at the Coliseo GNP Seguros in Zapopan, part of the Guadalajara metropolitan area. Its listing covers Friday, 18 and Saturday, 19 December 2026.

Reports on the September announcement named only 19 December for Guadalajara. No separate statement on the 18 December night has been published alongside the promoter’s listing.

The venue address is Avenida Patria 1251 in the Lomas del Valle district of Zapopan. Ticketmaster México is again the online seller named by the promoter.

The State Department rates Jalisco at Level 3, Reconsider Travel, but sets no restrictions for the Guadalajara metropolitan area. It advises against travel between cities after dark, so avoid a late drive from Mexico City.

Tips for US and Foreign Visitors

US citizens need a valid passport book to fly to Mexico, and no visa for visits of up to 180 days. Mexican immigration officers decide the length of stay on arrival.

International airports issue air travellers a digital immigration form, the FMMD. Keep your entry stamp or e-gate receipt, and the form details, until you leave the country.

The State Department rates Mexico City at Level 2, Exercise Increased Caution, citing terrorism and crime. Its advisory, issued on 29 May 2026, sets no specific restrictions for US government staff in the capital.

The department urges travellers to use app-based rides or dispatched taxis rather than hailing cars on the street. It also advises against travelling alone, especially in remote areas.

Card payments are common in Mexico City, but carry some pesos for street food and small purchases. At MXN 18.46 per US dollar, the open.er-api.com rate of 15 October 2026, MXN 500 is about US$27.

December nights in Mexico City are cool and usually dry, so bring a light jacket. Mid-December flights and hotels fill quickly, so book soon after securing tickets.

What It Means for You

For US fans who missed the SoFi Stadium shows, Mexico City offers another chance to see the reunited band. The trip also lines up with Guadalupe Day and the first weeks of Mexico’s holiday season.

The show will likely run late, and the start time is still unknown. Mexico City stays one hour behind US Eastern time throughout December.

What Is Not Known

The promoter has not published a start time, door times, an opening act or zone prices for Mexico City. It is also not public how many seats remain in each section.

Whether 18 December in Guadalajara is a separate, added show has not been announced beyond the promoter’s listing. Whether more Mexican dates will follow is not known.

What Comes Next

Start times usually appear on Ticketmaster México and in buyers’ accounts in the weeks before a show. Ticket holders should watch their email for any change to the time or entry gates.

Bruno Mars plays the same stadium on five nights between 3 and 11 December, the stadium’s calendar shows. Los Bukis close that listed December run on Saturday, 12 December.
