On June 8, 2019, Fonseca played The Aztec Theatre. San Antonio hasn't seen him since. Next spring he's back in the same room.

Fonseca plays The Aztec Theatre on Wednesday, March 31, 2027, at 8 p.m. The date was announced Oct. 16, and tickets run $64 to $86.50 through Ticketmaster. The Aztec holds 1,477. U.S. presales opened Oct. 16 and general sale followed on Oct. 19, so tickets have been on sale for a few weeks.

The show is part of the *Antes que el tiempo se vaya Tour*, a 24-date international run behind his 11th studio album, according to that same tour announcement. The tour opens Nov. 15 in El Salvador, and the 2027 leg is big. He plays a new arena in the Medellín area, DAVIarena, on Feb. 6. Costa Rica follows on March 12 at Parque Viva. In Ecuador he's booked for Quito's Estadio Olímpico Atahualpa, his first time in that stadium. The U.S. run comes in March and April and includes Radio City Music Hall in New York.

There's a business story behind the routing, too. In July, Pollstar reported that WME had signed Fonseca. A bigger agency usually means a bigger tour, and this one puts him in arenas and stadiums in some markets and in theaters like the Aztec in others.

San Antonio hasn't seen him since. Next spring he's back in the same room.

For San Antonio that's a good deal. Here he's playing a 1,477-seat theater, not an arena, on a Wednesday night. Fans who've followed him since his early hits get a closer view than they'll find at most stops on this run.

Nearly eight years is a long gap for an artist with a strong Texas audience. Plenty has happened since that 2019 show: a new agency, a new album, and a tour that opens in Central America and runs across both continents before it arrives here.

A few practical notes. It's a weeknight show at 8 p.m., so plan around work the next morning. The show is months away, but tickets are already on sale, and the better seats in a room this size tend to go first. Buy through the Ticketmaster link above rather than resale.

The Aztec was his last San Antonio stop and it will be his next one. In between came an album, a new agency and nearly eight years.
