Last week, we brought you 20 awesome concerts coming to Orlando this fall 2015, including Janet Jackson, Chvrches and Billy Idol. But you may not have been aware of all the concerts in Español that are also coming to Orlando, from a classic Argentinian rock band to the best of Colombia’s reggaeton scene. As Pitbull, the Miami rapper and new patron saint for everything we hold sacred in Florida (a.k.a tourism), would say: ¡Dale!
Juan Luis Guerra
7 p.m. Sept. 13 at Amway Center, $55 – $175
Juan Luis Guerra brings the contagious mix of merengue and bachata that he’s perfected in his 30-year career to the Todo Tiene Su Hora tour, named after his latest album. The 58-year-old Dominican singer had tremendous success last year on the Billboard Latin Airplay chart with “Tus Besos,” the doo-wop-inspired single from the album.Los Enanitos Verdes
6 p.m. Sept. 20 at House of Blues, $32.75 – $57.75
The legendary Argentinian rock group returns to the House of Blues this year with new material from their 2013 album “Tic Tac” and older classic singles like “Lamento boliviano” and “La muralla verde.” Los Enanitos Verdes, translated as Little Green Men, have ignited Alt-Latino souls everywhere since 1979.Ricardo Arjona
8 p.m. Sept. 20 atAmway Center, $41.75 – $148.25
With some strategic planning and a prayer or two to the gods who rule I-4, you could theoretically make your night extra angsty by going to the concert above and Ricardo Arjona’s last stop on his Viaje tour. This former basketball player and school teacher from Guatemala pulls no punches when he sings about sexuality, racism and bloodshed in various Latin American rhythms.J Balvin
8 p.m. Sept. 24 at Hard Rock Live Orlando, $35 – $60
One of the rising stars in the world of reggaeton, J Balvin puts a Colombian spin to the Latino urban genre on his first tour, and he’s not afraid to stand up for his values. A few months ago, Balvin cancelled his performance on Miss USA protesting presidential candidate Donald Trump’s remarks on Mexicans and other Latin Americans. The tour also includes special guest Becky G, the Chicana singer whose hit “Shower” was stuck in our heads way longer than what’s medically safe.Marc Anthony and Carlos Vives
8 p.m. Oct. 1 at Amway Center, $66 – $156
Combining Carlos Vives’ tropical take on Colombian pop with Marc Anthony’s Nuyorican salsa, you’d be remiss to ignore their tour UNIDO2. The two singers became besties after Anthony was featured on Vives’ single “Cuando nos volvamos a encontrar,” which won a Latin Grammy for Best Tropical Song.Victor Manuelle
8 p.m. Oct. 16 at Hard Rock Live Orlando, $57 – $125
Continuing October with more salsa comes Victor Manuelle’s Que Suenen Los Tambores tour, named after his recent album and hit single. Born in the Bronx, but raised in Puerto Rico, Manuelle is currently tied with Marc Anthony for most number one singles in the Billboard Tropical Songs chart.Ricky Martin
7:30 p.m. Oct. 25 at Amway Center, $24 – $126
After touring the world and the rest of the country, Ricky Martin (finally) comes to Orlando on the last stop of his One World tour. The ex-Menudo star is currently gearing up for the September premiere of Univision’s La Banda, where he, Laura Pausini and Alejandro Sanz will judge contestants in the search for the next Latino boy band.Pablo Alborán
8 p.m. Nov. 6 at House of Blues, $42.75 – $82.75
Pablo Alborán is well known in Europe and Latin America, but still relatively unknown in the U.S. Latino music scene. It’s something the Spanish singer told the Associated Press he was nervous about as he starts the U.S. leg of his tour in New York, but after a quick listen to his single “Solamente tú,” it sounds like he doesn’t need to worry.Alejandro Fernández
7 p.m. Nov. 15 at Amway Center, $59 – $250
Since the beginning of his career, Alejandro “El Potrillo” Fernández has branched out from the mariachi upbringing of his father, the iconic Vicente Fernández, into the world of romantic pop ballads. The Mexican superstar has had great success with balancing both genres at his Confidencias World Tour, but by the end of night, we want to hear his rendition of “Mexico, lindo y querido” at least once.Juanes
8 p.m. Dec. 3 at Hard Rock Live Orlando, $101.50 – $46.50
Ending the 2015 season is Colombian rock star Juanes on the second-to-last stop before his Loco de Amor tour ends in Miami. Named after his latest album, it’s a departure from his usual body of work that includes songs about social issues to one that focuses completely on love and the trials of relationships.
