Una Noche de Salsa 15 Now Runs Two Nights

PERU · LIFE & CULTURE

Una Noche de Salsa 15 plays two nights at Lima’s Estadio San Marcos on Friday 2 and Saturday 3 April 2027. It was first announced for a single night, Saturday 27 March 2027.

Una Noche de Salsa 15 is the fifteenth edition of Peru’s big salsa festival. It fills Estadio San Marcos in Lima on Friday 2 April 2027 and Saturday 3 April 2027.

Teleticket sells a separate listing for each night. Tickets start at S/30 (about US$9), so the entry price is low for a visiting salsa fan.

What Una Noche de Salsa 15 Is

The Teleticket event page names Tropimusic Entertainment S.A.C. as the organiser. This is the first edition at Estadio San Marcos, inside the Ciudad Universitaria of Lima’s San Marcos university.

Peruvian press reports say the festival was held at the Estadio Nacional for its first 14 editions. The ticket page does not say this, so treat it as reported rather than official.

Each night is listed with an expected duration of about 10 hours. That makes it a long show, closer to a festival day than a normal concert.

Who Is Playing

A report dated Thursday 17 September 2026 lists El Gran Combo de Puerto Rico, Grupo Niche and Víctor Manuelle. It also lists La Sonora Ponceña and Adolescentes Orquesta.

Puerto Rican Power, Willie González and Ray Sepúlveda complete the eight names announced so far. The organisers say more artists are still to be announced.

No source says which acts play on Friday and which on Saturday. Wait for the nightly split before choosing a single night.

Dates and Start Time in US Time

Teleticket lists Friday 2 April 2027 and Saturday 3 April 2027. Each night “may begin” at 4:00 p.m. local time and lasts about 10 hours.

Lima stays on UTC minus 5 all year and does not change its clocks. In April the United States is on daylight time, so 4:00 p.m. in Lima is 5:00 p.m. in New York.

That is 2:00 p.m. in Los Angeles and 4:00 p.m. in Chicago on the same day. Miami shares New York time, one hour ahead of Lima.

Doors, the order of the acts and the end time have not been published. Plan around the 4:00 p.m. start and check again closer to the date.

How the Date Changed

At the announcement on Monday 3 August 2026, press reports gave a single night, Saturday 27 March 2027. Teleticket and a later lineup report now list two nights, on 2 and 3 April.

The Teleticket page marks Friday 2 April 2027 as a new date, with sales listed from Thursday 13 August 2026. No source explains why the original date moved.

Anyone who saw the March date in an older post should ignore it. Book flights only against the dates on the Teleticket page.

Tickets and Prices

Teleticket warns that it is not responsible for tickets bought outside its official channels. Buyers may hold up to 10 tickets per customer.

Each night is sold as a separate listing, so check the right date at checkout. A virtual queue gives every buyer a random place in line when a sale opens.

E-tickets can be downloaded from two days before the event. The 20% presale discount ended on Friday 7 August 2026 for 3 April and Sunday 16 August 2026 for 2 April.

The prices below are the regular prices, and both nights list the same amounts. Teleticket says the prices include the service fee.

• North stand (Norte): S/30 (about US$9).
• Preferencia: S/42 (about US$12).
• East and West stands (Oriente, Occidente): S/60 (about US$17).
• VIP: S/97 (about US$28).
• Super VIP: S/242.30 (about US$70).
• Box Pilsen, one person in a shared box: S/395 (about US$114).
• Box Pilsen, whole box for 10 people: S/3,950 (about US$1,140).

Dollar figures use the Central Reserve Bank of Peru interbank selling rate: 3.46 soles per US dollar on Friday 30 October 2026. That was the latest rate the bank had published on 3 November 2026.

Disabled visitors with accredited documents can buy one discounted ticket each, from a stock of 40 tickets. On 3 November 2026 Teleticket showed no sold-out label on any sector, but that can change at any time.

Entry Rules and What to Bring

Teleticket recommends the event for visitors over 18. Minors aged 14 and over may enter with a responsible adult.

Adult and minor must each pay for a ticket in the same sector, sit together and may be asked for ID. Children under 14 are not allowed, and re-entry is not permitted.

Every visitor is searched at the entrance. Food and drink of any kind, glass or plastic bottles, aerosols and laser pointers are banned.

Professional and semi-professional cameras, drones and selfie sticks are also banned. Bring a phone with the e-ticket downloaded and your photo ID.

Getting to the Stadium

The venue is Estadio San Marcos, inside the Ciudad Universitaria UNMSM in Cercado de Lima. Teleticket gives that as the address and publishes no gate map or transport plan.

The dates fall in the days after Easter Sunday, 28 March 2027. Check flights and hotel rates early.

Arrive with time to spare, because the show runs about 10 hours. Plan your return trip before the final act.

Safety and Costs for US Visitors

The US State Department rates Peru at Level 2, Exercise Increased Caution, in an advisory issued on 16 May 2025. It cites crime, civil unrest and kidnapping, and says crime often happens in daylight and in crowds.

The advisory says demonstrations can close roads, often without warning. Check the current level before booking, because advisories can change.

US citizens need no visa for tourist stays of 90 days or less. The passport must be valid for six months after arrival.

Single tickets run from about US$9 to US$114, and the box for 10 people costs about US$1,140. Flights, hotels, transport and food cost extra.

Keep phones close in a crowd and carry only the cash and cards you need. Leave your passport in a hotel safe.

What It Means for You

For a US salsa fan, the ticket price is low, but flights and hotels will cost far more. East Coast travellers lose only an hour crossing to Lima.

Buy only through Teleticket and keep the e-ticket on your phone. Check which night your favourite act plays once the split is announced.

What Is Not Known

The full lineup and the split between Friday and Saturday have not been published. Organisers have not said whether the same acts play both nights.

Gate opening times, the running order and the end time are not listed. Teleticket only says the event may begin at 4:00 p.m.

Live stock can change by the hour. On 3 November 2026 the Teleticket page showed no sold-out label.

No transport plan or gate map has been announced. The reason the date moved from 27 March has not been explained.
