The second day of the 2024 Corona Capital Festival on Saturday (Nov. 16) turned into a multi-generational party that pleased the younger crowd with the high energy of Shawn Mendes , and the contemporary adult audience with the post-punk and Britpop of New Order and Travis . Amidst this, American singer-songwriter St.
Vincent settled an old debt with her Mexican fans as one of the star acts of the day. On its second day, the festival brought together more than 69,000 attendees — according to promoter Ocesa — who also enjoyed shows by Primal Scream, Melanie Martinez , Black Pumas , The Blaze , Jorja Smith , Tora, Busted and others, across five stages set up at the Curva 4, former headquarters of F1 in Mexico City. Canadian-Colombian singer-songwriter Jessie Reyez , who has written songs for Dua Lipa, delivered a dynamic show, talked to the audience and charmed everyone with her voice and her mix of hip-hop, soul and jazz.
The program continued on Sunday (Nov. 17) with the debut of Paul McCartney at a Latin American music festival and performances by Jack White and Iggy Pop — who said he was bringing guitarist Nick Zinner from the Yeah Yeah Yeahs — plus Empire of the Sun, Beck, Sophie Ellis Bextor, Leon Bridges, Kim Gordon, Maximo Park and Hermanos Gutiérrez, among others. Below are five of our favorite moments from day two of the 2024 Corona Capital festival in Mexico City.
