Here are the most relevant in order of appearance:

1.-Enrique Bunbury

A show

on February 15th, at Playas Plaza Monumental.

A cold night awaited the arrival of thousands of people that gathered to welcome the Palo Santo Tour.

2.-Silvio Rodriguez

The Cuban nueva trova singer, performed at Rosarito's Baja California Center on March 17, after 30 years without setting foot on a stage in the region. We know it wasn't precisely in Tijuana, but we had to include him given that his comeback was very popular.

3.-Zoe

At the interactive children's museum "El Trompo", and during the spring equinox alongside Vetusta Morla to get things going. It couldn't have been a better night!

4.-Miguel Bose

On May 16th, Tijuana experienced a night like no other before it, the Spanish singer made Playas' Plaza Monumental roar with his greatest hits. It was without a doubt, a great show.

5.-La Maldita Vecindad, La Lupita y La Castañeda

Three titans of national rock reunited on September 20th at the Centro de Espectaculos Alamar. It was a special tour that celebrated La Maldita's 30th anniversary and with it, its farewell from the stages, making a truly special performance.

6.-Somos America

Los Tigres del Norte, Molotov, Kinky, Zurdock, Julieta Venegas and Enjambre were all present during a festival we sure hope is here to stay. One of the highlights of the night was Zurdock's reunion after 10 years of being absent and Los Tigres del Norte stealing the show on October 3rd in Parque Morelos.

7.-Los Angeles Azules at entijuanarte

Reaching its 10 year anniversary, the popular group sang in front of over 35 thousand people that cluttered CECUT's forecourt and its surroundings on October 4th.
