Global Latin music superstar Ryan Castro delivered an unforgettable homecoming this past weekend at the 11th edition of the North Sea Jazz Festival in Curaçao, marking one of the most emotional and powerful performances of his career.
The concert doubled as a tribute to his latest album, SENDÉ, a project infused with the island’s rhythms, sounds, and cultural influences, where Castro spent key years of his youth. Returning to Curaçao symbolized a full-circle moment for the artist, performing on one of the Caribbean’s most prestigious stages that once helped inspire his musical journey.
Backed by a live reggae band, Castro turned the night into a high-energy celebration, performing his biggest hits and viral tracks from SENDÉ, including fan favorites like “Sanka,” “Bombastik,” “Ojalá,” and more.
Earlier in the week, Castro surprised fans with the launch of his Nike collab pop-up, Nike by Ryan Castro, in Curaçao. The event gave fans an exclusive customization experience, where they could design T-shirts, jackets, and accessories with Castro’s unique creative vision. The collaboration represents a blend of music, culture, and fashion, further solidifying his influence beyond the stage.
Adding to his monumental week, Ryan Castro appeared on the cover of Rolling Stone en Español, where he reflected on the success of SENDÉ, his ongoing world tour, and his role in shaping the global Latin music movement.
The Curaçao performance is part of Castro’s SENDÉ World Tour, which is making waves across Latin America, the United States, and Europe. European dates were officially announced this week, with tickets going on sale September 5. Fans can expect stops in Spain, France, Italy, Germany, and more, continuing Castro’s rise as one of the most in-demand Latin artists worldwide.
