J Balvin & Ozuna Set to Headline Inaugural Sueños Festival in Chicago

The producers behind Baja Beach Fest, Chicago’s Reventon Promotions, and Lollapalooza are pleased to announce the first annual Sueños Music Festival, the largest Latin Reggaeton music event to ever take place in Grant Park in the heart of downtown Chicago. The 2-day, one-stage event will feature headliners J Balvin, Ozuna, and Wisin & Yandel, with performances from Myke Towers, El Alfa, Jhay Cortez, Sech, Fuerza Regida and many more over Memorial Day weekend, May 28 and 29, 2022. Passes will be available this Friday at www.suenosmusicfestival.com.
The stacked Sueños Festival lineup features some of the hottest and most exciting Latin Reggaeton stars on the scene today. The festival will be J Balvin’s only Chicago appearance in 2022 and his first time back to the city since his iconic performance at Lollapalooza in 2019, and Reggaeton star Ozuna’s first performance in Chicago in four years. In a moment not to be missed, Wisin & Yandel will take the stage at Sueños as part of their final tour, “La Ultima Mision.” Jhay Cortez is one of Latin music’s rising stars and continues to deliver incredible music and notable collaborations including his hit song “Dakiti” with Bad Bunny, which has earned more than 1.2 billion streams on Spotify alone.
Sueños Festival (translation: dreams), was created to be an inclusive event with a mission to continue to celebrate and uplift Latin culture and the extraordinary music, people, food, and amazing energy that comes along with it. In addition to an entirely Latin lineup, the festival will feature a curated selection of Chicago’s best Latin food, art installations, a ferris wheel, multiple bars, and specialty cocktail lounges, and much more.
“Chicago is home to one of the largest Mexican populations in the country—making events like Sueños Festival an important opportunity to highlight the culture and the cultural contributions of our Latino community as a whole,” said Chicago Mayor Lori E. Lightfoot. “Through the power of music, food and much more, this exciting festival will showcase Chicago’s rich diversity and bring shows from some of the biggest names in music to our city for attendees to enjoy.”
“We’re honored to work with the producers of Lollapalooza and Reventon to bring a premier Latin festival to Grant Park in Chicago,” said Aaron Ampudia of Baja Beach Fest. “Reggaetón is a massive genre but remains underserved by live festivals in the US. We’re extremely proud to expand to the US and serve our community and everyone who enjoys Latin music. Chicago, estén listos para perrear. See you on Memorial Day Weekend.”
“Over a decade ago, I started Reventon Promotions with a dream of bringing authentic and diverse Hispanic entertainment to Chicago,” said Enrique Medrano of Reventon Promotions. “Now I am excited and proud to be part of the first Sueños festival, an event that celebrates the Hispanic presence in the city, in addition to being held in the iconic and representative Grant Park right in the heart of downtown. What better place is there for thousands of people from different Latin American countries to meet, share, and celebrate with artists of the likes of J Balvin, Ozuna, and many more.”

Meet Madison Star, NYC’s rising rap and fashion creative to watch

Paying homage to an Eve classic, “For The Girls” is an empowerment anthem for all the it girls and girl bosses everywhere. Madison oozes confidence as she delivers braggadocious bars, affirming that her work ethic will pave the way for her continued success: “Better let them know you that girl for real/And in time it will show/Patient with your gift, in time it will grow/What Michelle say? We get high when they low.” The video finds Star roaming the streets of Japan as she visits fashion houses and performs in front of an intimate audience.
Hailing from Westchester, NY, Madison Star has always been surrounded by hip-hop, R&B, and fashion – all which permeates her music. In September 2021, she released her debut mixtape, FREE STYLE: THE MIXTAPE. The 8-track mixtape is featureless, proving that Star can hold her own on a track and leave a formidable first impression on listeners. With hard-hitting tracks like “SS OFF WHITE,” “P*SSY RAP” and “DRESS 2 KILL,” she makes it clear she’s that girl and has the bars to make you affirm it. Within the same year, she also launched her fashion house, Madison Star Couture, in which she creates custom statement pieces from intricate fabrics. Fun fact – you can catch her wearing her own designs throughout the video! 😉 Star has since earned praise from outlets like Essence, HYPEBAE, 21Ninety, and more.
With new music on the way, Madison Star is ready to dazzle in the spotlight in true it girl fashion – pun intended.
