Negotiations for singer María José Quintanilla to perform at the 2027 Viña del Mar International Song Festival reportedly failed due to budgetary disagreements. According to the Canal 13 program ‘¡Hay que decirlo!’, the impasse occurred after Quintanilla’s team requested approximately $500 million CLP, an amount the organizing committee stated exceeded their budget margins.

Following these reports, speculation has emerged regarding the 2027 lineup. While journalists suggest that Quintanilla and the duo Los Vásquez are unlikely to participate, other rumors suggest Italian singer Laura Pausini may perform and be considered for the Gaviota de Platino award. The festival organization has not yet provided official confirmation regarding the programming or specific awards.
