Its concept is to gather important and upcoming bands from all over Ibero-America. This year, 150,000 people gathered to hear the performances of 70 artists and groups from 18 countries.
As in previous years, the primary PA systems were provided by Tecnoson Espectaculos, for the promoter OCESA Group. Under the leadership of sound designer Sergio Zenteno, two of the main stages were set up with NEXO STM modular line array systems. Drawing on Tecnoson’s extensive inventory, the system specification for the Tecate Stage was a great example of the diversity and sonic compatibility of the range of NEXO cabinets.
