Where many events in North America have shifted their focus towards lineups that lean into Top 40 acts and artists climbing the algorithmically influenced streaming music charts, Corona Capital has remained true to its ethos of booking a highly curated event that emulates the magic of the early 2000s festival lineups that inspired its formation in 2010. Each year Corona Capital brings together an impressive array of performers from across the alternative, indie, punk and pop landscapes, presenting an eclectic mix of living legends, future superstars on the upswing, and the indie artists driving underground culture forward towards its next transformation.
“From the very beginning, Corona Capital was conceived as the international indie rock festival in Mexico — a weekend where fans can discover and experience a wide range of global music acts beyond the streaming platforms. While alternative and indie rock remain its core, the festival embraces other genres like hip-hop, K-pop, and pop, always staying true to its DNA. Corona Capital is where fans and artists connect their passions in one unforgettable weekend.” -Armando Calvillo De Mária y Campos (Corona Capital/OCESA)
Beyond the performing artists, the festival’s attraction as a unique destination for music fans lies in its setting in the heart of Mexico City, a culturally vibrant and cosmopolitan metropolis home to world-class museums, bustling arts districts, a culinary scene encompassing authentic street food to high-end dining, and a rich history as the site of the ancient Aztec capital Tenochtitlan. From the floating gardens of Xochimilco, to the hip and trendy nightlife of the Roma, Condesa and Zona Rosa districts, there is no shortage of attractions to keep festival goers spiritually enriched and entertained. One could argue that adding on a couple of days to the trip in order to get a taste of all that Mexico City has to offer isn’t so much an option as it is a must.
With round trip flight options currently available from cities like New York, Chicago, and Los Angeles ranging from less than 300-400 USD, the relative affordability of dining, activities, transportation and lodging in Mexico City makes it an attractive destination for music festival fans when compared to similar events in other North American cities. Not to mention it comes with the added benefit of experiencing live music among the crowds of Corona Capital, known for their unique festival fashion and their enthusiastic embrace of the performers on stage. Attending Corona Capital is truly an unforgettable experience, and one every music fan should aim to take part in.
