Emilia Brings Dance, Sparkle, & Glamour to Auditorio Nacional in Mexico: Here Are 5 Most ‘Iconic’ Moments

Emilia is the new global sensation of Argentine pop, and her successful stop in Mexico confirms the rapid rise of her popularity. In less than a year, the singer-songwriter went from performing in mid-sized theaters to conquering major venues like the iconic Auditorio Nacional in Mexico City. On Sunday (Aug. 31), she took the stage there to close the Latin American leg of her Emilia Tour 2025.

Her show at the so-called “Coloso de Reforma” turned into an electrifying evening full of dance, sparkle and glamour. It was a moment of deep and special connection between the performer and the 8,500 attendees, according to figures from OCESA, the majority of whom were women in their 20s. Some even went the extra mile by mimicking her outfits with shiny clothing, hats, and boots.

The urban pop of the artist born in Nogoyá, Argentina, filled the venue on the touristy Avenida Paseo de la Reforma with songs like “Exclusive.mp3,” “IConic.mp3,” “Facts.mp3,” “cuatro veinte,” “Jagger.mp3,” “Jet_Set.mp3,” “Ojitos_Verdes.mp3” and “Mi otra mitad.” These tracks had the loving audience dancing and singing along, making Emilia feel right at home.

The show transitioned from the energy of her most popular pop songs to heartfelt ballads and emotional personal moments that brought the singer to the verge of tears. It then erupted into a lively dance sequence with the rhythm of cumbia, paying tribute to her roots.

Emilia’s tour continues in L.A. with two consecutive concerts at The Wiltern theater on Wednesday and Thursday (Sep. 3-4), and concludes in New York this weekend with two shows at the Brooklyn Paramount on Saturday and Sunday (Sep. 6-7).

Here are five standout moments from Emilia’s debut on Aug. 31 at the Auditorio Nacional in Mexico City.
