Banda MS Kicks Off Fiestas Patrias in Las Vegas

Las Vegas was ablaze with Mexican pride and electrifying music on September 13th as regional Mexican giants, Banda MS, returned to the Michelob Ultra Arena at Mandalay Bay. This highly anticipated concert not only marked the beginning of the 2025 Fiestas Patrias celebrations but also reaffirmed Banda MS’s undeniable status as one of the genre’s most influential and beloved acts.

An Unforgettable Surprise Collaboration

The night, already a vibrant celebration from the first note, reached a fever pitch with a truly unforgettable moment: the surprise appearance of Jesús Ortiz Paz (JOP), the dynamic lead singer and director of the powerhouse group Fuerza Regida. JOP joined Banda MS on stage to perform their brand-new, unreleased track, “SEGURO LE DOLIÓ.” This exciting collaboration, which merges two iconic sounds within regional Mexican music, was met with thunderous applause and is set to drop on all platforms this September 18th. The energy in the arena was palpable, showcasing the immense enthusiasm for this groundbreaking musical union.

A Las Vegas Tradition and a Legacy of Success

This Las Vegas concert is a cherished tradition for Banda MS, who have made it a September staple, connecting with their dedicated fanbase during Hispanic Heritage Month. Oswaldo Silvas, a vocalist for Banda MS, expressed the group’s sentiment, stating, “It’s always an honor for us to present ourselves in this city during the month of our homeland. And this time, having Jesús with us was a very special moment, both for us and for the audience.” Formed in Mazatlán, Sinaloa, in 2003, Banda MS has consistently lived up to its nickname, “la banda mas taquillera” (the top-grossing band), accumulating an impressive 16 million monthly listeners on Spotify and boasting millions of followers across YouTube, Instagram, Facebook, and TikTok. Their consistent success, including being recognized as Spotify’s most-streamed Mexican artist in 2020, underscores their enduring impact.

The recent Las Vegas show was more than just a concert; it was a testament to the power of music to unite and celebrate culture. Banda MS, with their rich history of chart-topping hits and their latest collaboration with Fuerza Regida, continues to dominate the regional Mexican music scene, promising even more unforgettable moments for their global audience.
