The concert of Mexican singer Julión Álvarez at AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas, was postponed due to issues related to his entry into the United States.

The event, originally scheduled to draw nearly 50,000 attendees, was impacted by the artist’s inability to arrive in time for the performance.

Álvarez was set to perform as part of his U.S. tour, marking a return to American venues following past legal complications.

In 2017, the U.S. Department of the Treasury linked Álvarez to alleged connections with drug trafficking networks, resulting in the revocation of his visa.

Those allegations were resolved in 2022, and he later announced in 2023 that he had obtained a new work visa.

Despite the clearance, complications related to his entry have affected the Arlington concert and potentially other stops on the tour.

Concert organizers and stadium officials are working to reschedule the event. Ticket holders have been advised to retain their tickets and await further updates.
