Enrique Iglesias, Ricky Martin, and Pitbull at Madison Square Garden in New York City on October 27^th, 2023

Global Latin music powerhouses Enrique Iglesias, Ricky Martin, and Pitbull who are known for their incredible blends and versatility of musical genres, joined forces with a one-of-a-kind arena run across North America this fall. For the first time ever, they share the stage for The Trilogy Tour featuring three unique headlining sets from each artist. Just as Halloween is descending upon tri-state area these megastars came to New York City for a pair of sold out shows at the Worlds Most Famous Arena. With the buzz filling up the Madison Square Garden from the Thursdays show, the crowd of fans flowed in for the second night.

Written by Andris Jansons

All three stars are rotating their turn for each night’s show. On this Fridays’ night the opening honors fell on yesterdays closing act Pitbull. While my personal knowledge on musical matters may fell short for an objective judgement, without any hesitation I can state that Pitbulls and his team’s performance packed so much energy that it could power the arena for a full night. Banger after a banger came raining down on the excited fans. There was no slowdown whatsoever, dancing and jumping was constant. For a rock fan as myself, I certainly appreciated intros from a lot of rock bands including Bon Jovi “Living On A Prayer”.

Throughout his career Pitbull has collaborated with a lot of modern day chart topping superstars and on many occasions the big screen displayed J-Lo, Marc Anthony, Usher and many others.

Pitbull also spoke at length about his roots, where he comes from and for what he is grateful. The biggest thanks was given to his teacher Hope Martinez that greatly influenced his life, and now he gives it back. He helped start a Tuition-Free Public charter for middle and high school called Sports Leadership and Management (SLAM!), which opened in 2013 in Miami’s Little Havana, the neighborhood where Pitbull grew up.

Enrique Iglesias came next. Yeah, all the ladies were screaming too loud, I don’t even remember what I was thinking. Oh yeah, I was taking pictures. So, yes, one of the biggest heartthrobs of the century opened up his set with “Tonight (I’m Lovin’ You)”. To make the evening more steamy the last verse he sang was … tonight I’m fucking you … . All the grandest of the big hits kept raining down on the fans – Hero, Be With You, Bailamos, Escape, Bailando and others.

Enrique set was more about the songs, the message, and a bit less dancing. Nonetheless the excitement came from the melody and sensuality.

The honors of closing the night fell on Ricky Martin. From my perspective his performance was a sort of combination of two previous ones (of course it is clearly subjective opinion). It was full of energy and dancing and packed a punch in sensuality. Who am I kidding, Ricky is just as much of a heartthrob as Enrique. So, yeah, it was a steamy Latin night. All his biggest hits got a proper attention – María, Shake Your Bon-Bon, She Bangs and of course Livin’ la Vida Loca. Well, personally, the last song reminds me of Shrek …. sorry Ricky, if you are reading this, I’m very sorry about that.

So, what a rock and metal music guy can take home from this hot and steamy Latin music show. A lot of positive energy. Each artist has a live band performing with them, the music is exciting, and the atmosphere is exhilarating. So, yes, I liked it. The tour will continue in Brooklyn tonight and then take a swing towards West. You still have plenty of time to catch up with this amazing spectacle. You can try you luck at here while ticket supplies last.

Sat Oct 28 – Brooklyn, NY – Barclays Center

Wed Nov 01 – Chicago, IL – United Center
