El Príncipe del Reggaetón, J Balvin, has announced the schedule for his 2022 José tour. Balvin will travel to 27 cities in seven weeks. The tour starts on April 19 in San Antonio, Texas, and ends on June 4 in San Juan, Puerto Rico.

José, which debuted September 10, is Balvin’s fifth solo studio album of his career. He also released 2019’s collaborative album Oasis with Bad Bunny. Balvin worked with Bunny again for José along with other artists like Ozuna, Tokischa, Jhay Cortez, Dua Lipa, Skrillex, and Khalid.

Last night, Balvin performed “In da Getto” on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon in anticipation of the release of José.

“I can’t wait to see the feedback – the love of the people,” Balvin told Fallon when asked about the release of his newest album. He later taught Fallon how to do the “In Da Getto” TikTok dance.

Balvin will perform music from José during a special concert live on TikTok on September 12 at 6 p.m. ET. He said he loves seeing all the “amazing things” his fans do with his music on the social media platform.

“It feels spontaneous and interactive in a way I haven’t felt with fans in a long time,” he said. “I get inspired when I open up TikTok to see what they’re doing, and it encourages me to find new ways to present my music and keep things fresh!”

On Twitter, Balvin’s fans were counting down the days when they could purchase their tickets for his tour, which will be available for presale on September 13 at 12pm local time.

Some fans were heartbroken when they learned that the 27 cities he’s visiting don’t include their hometown. Don’t worry, Chicago, maybe next time.
