Karol G is one of the biggest touring artists in Latin music, and her MetLife stand is the largest concert in the New York area this weekend. The Tropitour is built around a tropical, festival-sized production for a stadium singing along to Bichota and Provenza. With Hispanic Heritage Month underway, this is the night the city's reggaeton fans head across the river.
What to expect
Expect a full stadium production with giant screens, dancers and a crowd that sings every word in Spanish from the first song. Stadium shows run long, so plan for a late finish, packed NJ Transit platforms at Meadowlands station and a slow ride back through Secaucus to Penn Station.
Good to know
- NJ Transit runs event trains to Meadowlands station via Secaucus Junction; Coach USA buses leave from Port Authority.
- MetLife has a clear-bag policy; bring a clear bag or none.
- Leaving takes time; decide in advance whether you're waiting out the crowd or leaving before the encore.
- The venue is in New Jersey, so budget extra travel time from the boroughs.
