Sueños is an annual American music festival held in Chicago. First inaugurated in 2022, the festival mainly focuses on reggaeton and latin trap.[1][2][3]

History

Sueños was started in 2022 by the producers of the Baja Beach Fest in collaboration with C3 Presents, the production team of Lollapalooza, and Reventon, a local entertainment company.[3][4][5]

It was a two-day event with headline artists including J Balvin, Ozuna and Wisin Y Yandel. Other performances were by Myke Towers, El Alfa, Tokischa, Sech, Natanael Cano, Fuerza Regida, Jhay Cortez, Blessd, Jowell & Randy, DJ Miriam and DJ Luian.[2][6][3]

Sueños is an outdoor reggaeton festival which hosted 45,000 people at Grant Park in Chicago in May 2022.[7][8][9] The organizers also partnered with Kennedy-King College to set up a music industry career fair.[10]

In 2023, the second edition of the festival featured headline artists including Wisin y Yandel, Feid, Grupo Firme, and Nicky Jam, along with performances by Arcangel, Chencho Corleone, Ivy Queen, PaoPao, Yovngchimi and Gera MX.[11][12][13]
