The Stray Kids Buenos Aires shows took place on 14 and 15 September at a racecourse in San Isidro, Argentina. Two dates, one headline act, and a name that misleads. This guide keeps the prices, seating and travel details for anyone planning the next big night at the venue.

A racecourse north of the capital became a concert field for two evenings. The Stray Kids Buenos Aires run opened on Monday 14 September at the Hipódromo de San Isidro. A second show followed there on Tuesday 15 September.

A racecourse turned into a stage

Stray Kids are a South Korean group with eight members. They sing in Korean, English and Spanish, and they write much of their own material.

The shows carry the name STRAYCITY, and DF Entertainment is the local promoter. Both nights are at the Hipódromo de San Isidro, the racecourse in the northern suburbs.

Check your own ticket for door times and the running order.

The name promises a festival, the ticket buys one night

STRAYCITY sounds like a city-wide event with a long line-up. Organisers describe it instead as a special series staged with the band’s own festival production.

The bill names NEXZ, the Argentine girl group K4OS and the Argentine DJ Cocho.

Each night is a single bill on one date. You buy one night, you watch one bill, you go home.

Campo, Platea, and what the words buy you

Campo is the standing field in front of the stage. Campo General is the general area, and Campo Delantero the front section nearer the stage.

Platea means seating. The Platea sectors are numbered, with Platea 1 closest to the stage and Platea 3 furthest back.

Standing at a racecourse means grass, dust and no shade once the sun drops. Seats cost more and hold a fixed place for three hours.

Travelling with children, or disliking crowds, points to Platea. Campo Delantero is where the queueing starts in the morning.

What a night on the grass costs

Published prices already include the service charge. Campo General was ARS 126,500 (about US$84) and Platea 3 ARS 207,000 (about US$137).

Platea 2 was ARS 253,000 (about US$168) and Campo Delantero ARS 333,500 (about US$221). Platea 1 topped the list at ARS 414,000 (about US$274).

All Access also listed an Experiencia Early Entrance package at ARS 790,000 (about US$523). It bundles a Campo Delantero ticket, early entry and a gift item.

That package cannot be refunded or resold. Conversions use the 13 September 2026 rate of 1,509.9 pesos to the US dollar, from er-api.com.

Buying late, from abroad, or from a stranger

The official seller is All Access, at allaccess.com.ar. Monday sold out in about three hours in May, and a second night was added.

Resale listings sit on StubHub for Tuesday and on viagogo for Monday. Resale prices move with demand, and the promoter does not cap them.

All Access can also stop a foreign buyer at the checkout. A notice appears saying no payment methods are available in your country of residence.

The site then verifies the card holder after purchase. You enter a six-digit code from your card statement within ten days, or the order lapses.

The two nights are sold as separate events. A Monday ticket will not get you through the gate on Tuesday.

The train north from Retiro

The Mitre commuter rail line runs from Retiro station in central Buenos Aires to San Isidro. Trains are cheap, frequent and the safest bet on a concert night.

The Tren de la Costa is the other rail option. It is a short tourist line along the river between Olivos and Tigre, with a stop in San Isidro.

Driving is possible but slow. Panamericana and Avenida del Libertador both clog badly in the evening rush.

Taxis and apps such as Cabify work, though fares climb steeply after the encore. Our guide to concerts in Buenos Aires this year covers the same routes.

Why Argentina fills a racecourse for a Korean band

Argentina has had organised K-pop fan clubs for well over a decade. They run dance contests, cover groups and album listening parties all year.

Buenos Aires is also a standard stop on Latin American tours. The city has the venues, the airport links and a young audience that buys fast.

The STRAYCITY series also covers Colombia and Mexico. Bogotá came on 9 September, and Mexico City follows on 25 and 26 September.

On show days the streets around the racecourse filled from early afternoon. Our Ronnie Wood concert guide shows how these big nights usually run.

What it means for you

If you missed the shows, the same racecourse hosts other large concerts, and the practical lessons carry over. Foreign cards can be blocked at the official seller, so buy early and keep your card statement handy for the six-digit check. Prices here are in US$ at the 13 September rate, and resale tickets can cost far more. Go by train from Retiro rather than by car, and expect a long, dusty night on the infield.

What is not known

We have no verified attendance figure for either night, and the exact running order should be checked against the organisers’ own announcements.

Frequently Asked Questions

When is the Stray Kids concert in Buenos Aires, Argentina?

The two Stray Kids Buenos Aires shows were on 14 and 15 September 2026 at the Hipódromo de San Isidro.

Is STRAYCITY a festival?

Not a multi-day one. Organisers call it a special series staged with the band’s festival production, on a single-night bill.

What is the difference between Campo and Platea?

Campo is standing room on the field, split into general and front sections. Platea is numbered seating, with Platea 1 nearest the stage.

How do I get to the Hipódromo de San Isidro?

Take the Mitre commuter line from Retiro to San Isidro, or the Tren de la Costa from Olivos. Driving means heavy evening traffic.

What can I learn from the Stray Kids shows for the next concert at San Isidro?

Buy only from the official seller or a regulated resale site, use the Mitre train from Retiro, and expect standing on grass with no shade. Check the door time and running order on your own ticket.
