Caifanes draws 65,000 fans to sold‑out GNP Stadium concert in Mexico

Mexican rock legends Caifanes played a sold‑out show at Cancún’s Estadio GNP, filling the venue with roughly 65,000 spectators. The band opened wearing the jersey of the Mexican national football team, echoing the squad’s pre‑World Cup anthem, and the stadium was lit in green as images of fans and national landscapes were projected. During the two‑hour set the group performed classics such as “La Célula que Explota” and “La Negra Tomasa,” dedicated “Aviéntame” to emerging Mexican bands, and paid tribute to mothers and fathers searching for missing relatives. Saúl Hernández also invited his sons to the stage, adding a personal touch to the night’s emotional highlights. The concert was hailed as a milestone for Mexican rock, underscoring the band’s enduring cross‑generational appeal.
