Stormont Vail Events Center, with support from Visit Topeka, is excited to announce the booking of its first Spanish-language recording artist. On March 24 of this year, the events center will feature renowned norteño band Los Tucanes de Tijuana, bringing vibrant Latin music to its 10,000-seat arena.
Los Tucanes de Tijuana boasts an impressive track record, with more than 25 million albums sold worldwide. The group has achieved 34 gold records and 30 platinum records, in addition to winning a Latin Grammy and securing five Grammy Award nominations in the U.S.
This historic concert organized by Stormont Vail Events Center seeks to tap into the area’s growing Hispanic market.

Stormont Vail Events Center, under the management of OVG360, is making waves as one of the first large venues in the Midwest to feature a Spanish-language artist. This decision reflects the venue's commitment to inclusion, providing a platform for artists that resonate with diverse communities in the region.
“Welcoming Los Tucanes de Tijuana to our stage is a win worth celebrating,” said OVG360’s Kellen Seitz, general manager for Stormont Vail Events Center. “It’s a testament to our commitment to offering a range of entertainment options for the Topeka community and surrounding areas, and we are proud to be pioneers in bringing renowned Spanish-language artists to the Midwest.”
“We are thrilled to see the events center embrace the rich cultural diversity of our community,” said Sean Dixon, president of Visit Topeka. “This historic concert will undoubtedly contribute to the vibrancy and inclusivity Topeka's entertainment scene is becoming known for.”
