Taking center stage
The most anticipated concert tours to hit El Paso in 2024
As the new year starts, it’s fun to look ahead at what El Pasoans can expect regarding concerts in El Paso and the area.
Being a big Hispanic community, El Paso continues to draw many famous Mexican singers and performers for 2024, including Luis Miguel, who will have two nights at the Don Haskins Center, and Marc Anthony, who will perform in March in El Paso.
The iconic Spanish band Hombres G will also be touring in the U.S. this year to celebrate 40 years of music career and stopping in El Paso in July.
In Las Cruces, the rock band Journey will come to the Pan American Center later this year. The R&B artist Ginuwine will perform in late February in nearby Ruidoso at the Inn of the Mountain Gods.
