"If you thought Bad Bunny's months-long " No Me Quiero Ir de Aquí " residency ended on Sunday night, you'd be wrong. Titled "No Me Quiero Ir de Aquí: Una Más," the superstar added one more San Juan show to his concert series on Sept. 20 - and this time, the whole world is invited. Tickets to the Saturday concert will only be available to Puerto Rican residents, but it will be livestreamed free of charge through Amazon Music."
"Bad Bunny's collaboration with Amazon will extend beyond the stage. The two entities are partnering up to provide an "enriched STEM curriculum, technology resources, and education support for students and teachers, as well as initiatives to assist farmers and improve access to fresh produce," according to a press release. In addition, Amazon is installing a curated new vertical to its online storefront, called "comPRa Local," which will draw consumers to Puerto Rican-owned businesses."
"The date of the upcoming concert holds significance as it marks the eight-year anniversary of when Hurricane Maria made landfall in Puerto Rico. The Category 4 storm killed somewhere between 3,000 and 4,700 people on the island. To this day, many Puerto Ricans continue to be plagued with rolling blackouts, which often come without warning and usually last anywhere between six and 12 hours."
Bad Bunny added a final San Juan concert titled "No Me Quiero Ir de Aquí: Una Más" on Sept. 20 and invited a global audience via a free Amazon Music livestream. In-person tickets for the Saturday show are restricted to Puerto Rican residents. The livestream begins at 5:30 p.m. PST and will be available on the Amazon Music app, Amazon Music Twitch channel, and Prime Video. Amazon will partner with Bad Bunny to support an enriched STEM curriculum, provide technology and education resources, assist farmers, improve access to fresh produce, and launch a "comPRa Local" storefront promoting Puerto Rican-owned businesses. The concert date coincides with the eight-year anniversary of Hurricane Maria.
