For expats in CDMX, this is the biggest EDM booking of the autumn — two nights from the DJ who turned festival main stages into a science.

Martin Garrix Mexico City 2026: The Shows

Two nights at the Palacio de los Deportes — October 16 and 17 — give Mexico City the fullest Garrix production the market has seen: the full pyro-and-visuals mainstage show translated indoors.

The double booking reflects demand: Mexico is among Garrix’s top global streaming markets, and his CDMX shows have upgraded in scale with every visit.

From ‘Animals’ to Arena Headliner

Garrix was 17 when ‘Animals’ reset the EDM market in 2013; a decade later he is the genre’s most consistent headliner, with a catalog built for exactly the 18,000-capacity dome format.

His live sets mix the hits with unreleased IDs — the reason fans treat each tour leg as a preview of the next album cycle.

A Colombian December Follows

The Latin American run continues in December: Bogotá’s Movistar Arena on December 4 and Medellín’s new DAVIarena in Sabaneta on December 5 — the same weekend Karol G plays El Campín, making it Colombia’s biggest electronic-versus-pop concert weekend of the year.

For expats choosing between CDMX and Colombia: the Palacio shows are the production-first option, the Colombian dates the year-end party.

Practical Tips for Expats

The Palacio de los Deportes sits on the Ciudad Deportiva complex — metro stations Velódromo and Ciudad Deportiva serve it; EDM nights run late, so plan the return.

Both nights are Friday and Saturday; Saturday historically sells first — if you’re flexible, Friday offers the same show with more room.
