“I’m starting now with the Real Hasta la Muerte Festival,” said Anuel. “My festival [will feature] lots of artists. I’ll announce the date soon,” he added.
The artist mentioned that he plans to launch the fest in the summer of 2027, and Europe may be its first stop. But the location is not settled. “The first year, I think [we will host it in] Spain,” he said, while noting he was still “going back and forth between Chile or Spain right now.” He also did not share a date, city, venue or lineup, but said the event would bring together “lots of artists.”
“Every year it’ll be in a different country,” said Anuel, stating that the international festival is also considering Puerto Rico, Mexico and Colombia as host possibilities.
The live music announcement came amid a broader conversation about Anuel’s next moves. He told Cobo that Real Hasta la Muerte 2 is due Nov. 19 and that he could release his corridos album, Cartel Real Hasta la Muerte, on the same day. Exploring the genre, he said, has made him “fall in love with music all over again — with something new, not the same old thing.”
The interview also touches on his relationship with Colombian megastar Karol G, his decision to get sober and how he’s rethinking his life and music. Watch the full conversation below.
