J Balvin Plots ‘Back to the Rayo’ 2025 North American Trek

J Balvin will set out on a North American tour next year to support his latest, Grammy-nominated “Rayo” album.

The “Back to the Rayo” tour will hit seven cities across the U.S. and Canada, starting on March 20 at State Farm Arena in Atlanta. Balvin will perform in Miami, New York, Toronto and Los Angeles before wrapping in Portland on May 17. See the full tour routing below.

“I was not thinking about making an album, but I never stopped making music,” Balvin told Variety about “Rayo” earlier this year. “Whenever I had free time, after I had finished everything else that day, I was recording music — no compromise with labels, nothing like that — for fun. I started to feel the nostalgia that I had when I was a kid, dreaming to be where we I am now, without any real expectation of what could come next.”

Meanwhile, Balvin was recently revealed as part of the cast for “Little Lorraine,” a film from Canada’s Wango Films. The production, shot in Cape Breton, Nova Scotia and Ontario, also stars Stephen Amell (“Arrow,” “Code 8”) and Sean Astin (“Lord of the Rings,” “Stranger Things”). Directed by Grammy nominee Andy Hines, the film is based on true events from the late 1980s, depicting a remote mining and fishing town’s transformation into a hub for a major cocaine smuggling operation. The cast also includes Stephen McHattie, Auden Thornton, Matt Walsh, Rhys Darby, Josh Close, Steve Lund and Sugar Lyn Beard.
