Bad Bunny Confirms U.S. Is Off 2025–26 Tour Over ICE Safety Concerns

He says he cut U.S. stops to avoid exposing immigrant fans to possible ICE presence outside venues.

Overview

  • In a newly published i-D interview, the artist says worry that ICE could be outside his shows was a principal factor in excluding the United States.
  • The Debí Tirar Más Fotos world tour runs from November 2025 to July 2026 across Latin America, Europe and Asia, with rapid sellouts and expanded Spain dates reported.
  • He emphasizes the choice is not about dislike of U.S. audiences, noting past American shows were successful and memorable.
  • Following a 30-show residency in Puerto Rico, he points U.S.-based fans to the island or international stops as alternatives, citing Puerto Rico’s different enforcement context.
  • His decision follows months of public criticism of ICE, including social posts highlighting street detentions and concerns for Latino attendees’ safety.
