Bad Bunny at the Vélodrome is the reggaeton event of summer 2026 in France. The Puerto Rican, absolute record-holder of global streaming, most-listened-to artist on Spotify three years in a row, sets his bags down in Marseille on Wednesday 1 July 2026 at 8pm for a unique date in Provence as part of his Debi Tirar Mas Fotos World Tour. It's his first return to Europe since 2019, in other words, seven years of waiting for the French audience.

Why this concert matters
Bad Bunny is not just the biggest current reggaeton star, he's one of the three or four most powerful artists in the music world, all genres combined. More than 100 billion cumulative streams, six consecutive number-one albums in the United States, collaborations with Drake, Rosalía, Cardi B, Jhayco. His previous tour El Último Tour del Mundo was the highest-grossing tour of 2022, ahead of Coldplay and Harry Styles.
On the show side, Bad Bunny is known for XXL stage designs with 360° screens, dancers, massive lighting, and a setlist that mixes his urbano hits (Tití Me Preguntó, Moscow Mule, Me Porto Bonito) with more introspective tracks from the latest album. A long concert, often 2h15 to 2h30, that more than justifies the trip.
Traffic plan for 1 July
Traffic and parking information is communicated by the organisers and the town hall before the event: check it before you set off. MR Taxi drops you as close as possible and picks you up at the exit, from all towns in the region, at the guaranteed maximum price announced at booking. If the place is hard to reach, I will give you an easily accessible meeting point.
It is advisable to book at least 24 hours ahead, but even at the last minute I adapt and find a solution. Estimate your trip on the Private transport page or contact us.
My tip for the evening
Three recommendations worth taking:
- Arrive early : at least 1h30 before the concert start. Security queues lengthen quickly, especially for international concerts attracting an audience from all over Europe.
- Eat before : on-site catering is decent but slow and expensive. A meal on the Prado or in central Marseille before heading down to the stadium will save you 30-minute queues for a drink.
- Book the return in advance : this is where MR Taxi makes all the sense. At concert exit (around 11pm-11:30pm), 55,000 people are looking for transport at the same time. Without a booking, it's mission impossible. With a pre-booked taxi, you have a fixed meeting point 5 minutes' walk from the stadium, your driver waits for you.
