J Balvin’s ‘Back to the Rayo’ Tour Coming to Kia Forum in May 2025

Colombian superstar J Balvin will bring his highly anticipated “Back to the Rayo” North American tour to Inglewood’s Kia Forum on May 9, 2025, giving local fans an opportunity to experience his dynamic reggaeton performances live.

The 27-date tour, supporting his latest album “Rayo,” includes performances across major U.S. cities and Canada. The Inglewood stop is expected to draw fans from across Los Angeles County to the iconic venue.

“After that storm that fell on me, that earthquake, well here we are, stronger and more mature than before,” Balvin recently shared during Billboard Latin Music Week, reflecting on personal challenges that influenced his new music.

The Grammy-nominated artist explained his refreshed approach to creating music: “Thank God that I can make music, not out of necessity, as we did before, but being able to do it from another point of view. It allowed me to connect with that inner child and enjoy the music without caring if it sells or not, but what makes me happy.”

His album “Rayo” has earned critical acclaim and is currently nominated for Best Música Urbana Album at the 2025 Grammy Awards.

Tickets for the Kia Forum show will be available through a pre-sale starting at 9 a.m. on November 20 for members of J Balvin’s “Familia” fan club. General ticket sales begin at 9 a.m. on November 21 via Ticketmaster.

This performance adds to the impressive lineup of international artists appearing at Inglewood’s entertainment venues in the coming year, further cementing the city’s status as a premier destination for live music and cultural events.
