A cultural milestone on the big screen
The legacy of Alberto Aguilera Valadez, known as Juan Gabriel, continues. Cinemex announces the special screening of the concert “Mi Primer Bellas Artes” in its theaters during August 2026. This occurs almost a decade after the departure of the Michoacan composer, while his performance of “Hasta que te met” resonates as the unofficial anthem of Mexican fans at the 2026 World Cup.
The original presentation, from May 9 to 12, 1990, marked a before and after. Juan Gabriel was the first popular music singer-songwriter to perform at the Palace of Fine Arts, accompanied by the National Symphony Orchestra. The access of a popular artist to that venue generated controversy among critics of the time, as recorded in the INBAL archives. However, the show broke barriers and democratized the use of the country’s highest artistic forum.
Features and pre-sales
The screenings will be exclusive in Cinemex complexes. Ticket pre-sale begins on Tuesday, July 28, 2026, both on digital channels and at physical ticket offices.
