The Announcement:
Fans rejoiced this August when Baja Beach Fest returned to Rosarito Beach, MX for its Fifth Anniversary, bringing A-List talent, nonstop perreo, and positive vibes to the friendly beachside town. Today, the festival releases the Baja Beach Fest 2023 Aftermovie, allowing fans to relive the one-of-a-kind event.
Baja Beach Fest 2023 was an unforgettable occasion, packing the beaches of Rosarito with thousands of passionate Latin music fans. The fest was a celebration of Reggaeton’s past and present, bringing legends of the genre and rising stars alike, with between-set DJs drawing from the decades-long history of the genre to get the crowd to sing along. 2023 introduced a surprise second stage on top of the festival’s delay tower, where Tainy and Sky Rompiendo performed DJ sets and thrilled the fans on the sand below. The new Aftermovie recreates those irrepressible vibes, offering breathtaking aerial views, intimate closeups, performance shots, and never-before-seen behind-the-scenes footage in one slickly-edited package.
Soundtracked by music from Don Omar, Feid, Young Miko, Becky G, El Alfa, Tainy, and more, the new Aftermovie documents many of the most memorable on-stage moments from the festival: Don Omar inviting Tego Calderon onstage for the first live performance of “Bandoleros” in five years; a series of surprise special guests, including Ryan Castro during Feid’s set, and Gabito Ballesteros during Becky G’s performance; stage entrances by Don Omar, Ozuna, Feid, Becky G, and more; Arcangel rocking the house; Tainy’s memorable performance atop the delay tower; Young Miko’s charismatic twilight set; and finally, Grupo Firme’s festival-closing “special Sunday set,” a moment of catharsis and Mexican pride to conclude a weekend of action. The Aftermovie also shines a spotlight on all that Rosarito Beach has to offer, including the vibrant party scene, spectacular views, delicious food, and much more
