Bad Bunny’s concert residency in Puerto Rico, titled No Me Quiero Ir de Aquí, represents not only a musical milestone, but also an unprecedented economic phenomenon for the island.
With 30 performances scheduled between July 11 and September 14, 2025 at the Coliseo de Puerto Rico José Miguel Agrelot (known as the “Choliseo”), this event has captured the attention of both locals and international visitors.
Bad Bunny to provide a $377 million economic boost
According to a study by Advantage Business Consulting, the residence will generate an estimated economic impact of $377 million in Puerto Rico, creating approximately 3,642 direct, indirect and induced jobs.
More than 80% of this economic activity will be concentrated in San Juan, the island’s capital.
The influx of visitors has been remarkable: around 600,000 people are expected to attend the concerts, doubling the usual average number of tourists in the low summer season.
This increase has benefited sectors such as hotels, gastronomy, transportation and retail.
Priority for local residents
In a gesture to his community, Bad Bunny reserved the first nine concerts exclusively for residents of Puerto Rico, selling tickets in person at different points on the island.
This measure was aimed at preventing resale and guaranteeing the access of locals to the shows.
Promotion of culture and responsible tourism
The album that inspires this residency, Debí Tirar Más Fotos, is a tribute to Puerto Rican culture, incorporating genres such as salsa, bomba and plena.
It also addresses issues such as gentrification and the loss of cultural identity, promoting a more conscious and respectful tourism with the local community.
Bad Bunny has used his platform to encourage attendees to support local businesses, sharing messages on social media inviting them to shop at island stores during their visit.
