The Livestream and the Surprise Announcement
The show was revealed during a marathon YouTube livestream titled “making a mixtape with latin mafia and staying here until we finish it.” Broadcast from LagoAlgo in Chapultepec, the stream ran for more than 12 hours and let fans watch Fred again.. and Latin Mafia build a collaborative mixtape in real time, from co-writing to co-production, with Fred’s brother and frequent collaborator Benjy Gibson in the room.
The surprise concert announcement landed mid-stream with only about 48 hours of notice, a signature move for Fred again.., who is known for short-notice, word-of-mouth shows around the world. Fans responded almost instantly, and the July 30 date sold out fast.
About the Collaboration and the Mixtape
Fred again.. is a Grammy-winning British producer and DJ known for turning personal moments and field recordings into emotional dance music, and for a live show that blends euphoric drops with intimate, communal energy. Latin Mafia is one of Mexico’s most talked-about young acts, a trio of brothers whose genre-blurring sound has made them a breakout name in the country’s new music scene.
The two finished their collaborative mixtape on July 28 at a LagoAlgo studio session in Mexico City. What the Palacio de los Deportes crowd hears on July 30 is, quite literally, freshly finished music, played in public for the first time just days after it was completed.

Planning Your Visit to the Concert
Getting There
Palacio de los Deportes is located in the Iztacalco borough on the eastern side of Mexico City and is accessible via the Mexico City Metro (Line 9, Velódromo or Ciudad Deportiva stations) as well as by taxi or rideshare services. Plan to arrive at least 60 to 90 minutes before the show to account for parking, security lines, and entry procedures, especially given the sold-out crowd.
What to Bring
Most venues have restrictions on bags and items you can bring inside. Check Palacio de los Deportes’ policies on the official venue website before attending. Bring comfortable shoes, as you will likely be on your feet and dancing for much of the night, and consider a light layer, since Mexico City evenings can turn cool.
