Netón Vega, Tucanes de Tijuana, Xavi Headline

The visa uncertainty for música mexicana acts isn’t stopping BelicoFest from hosting a killer festival. Rolling Stone can exclusively reveal the lineup for the Phoenix fest’s second edition, scheduled for Nov. 8 and 9, at the Wild Horse Pass Festivalgrounds, featuring performances by the likes of Netón Vega, Los Tucanes de Tijuana, and Xavi.
On Saturday, Nov. 8, the festival will see headlining performances from Vega, Xavi, and Clave Especial, along with appearances from Victor Mendivil, Yeri Mua, and Kane Rodriguez.
On day two, Marca Registrada, Tucanes, and Edgardo Nuñez will lead the festivities after appearances from Los Dareyes de la Sierra, Tony Aguirre, Joel de la P, and Dinamicos Jr.
“BelicoFest is more than a music festival—it’s a cultural movement dedicated to celebrating and uplifting the Latino community,” organizer Ramiro Bojorquez tells Rolling Stone. “Rooted in heritage, pride, and connection, BelicoFest exists for the culture and will continue to create unforgettable experiences that honor and represent it.”
Two-day GA tickets start at $259, and VIP entry begins at $358. Fans can also acquire La Toxica passes for $499, which include admission to VIP areas and access to La Bota Shoe Shine, a barbershop, private beverages, and a Spotify-hosted lounge. The fest also offers El Belicon passes, which include four complimentary drinks and more special access.
Last month, Bojorquez spoke to Rolling Stone about his commitment to hosting the fest for its second year, even amid the uncertainty around artists’ visas under the Trump administration. (Michelada Fest canceled its Chicago event over the issue.)
“We’re very, very cautious about who we book, and not taking away from the whole experience, because our name is based on that genre and culture of Mexican music,” Bojorquez said at the time. “It’s a movement that we started, and now we have to continue. We can’t let government restrictions stop us. We gotta work with what we have and give the audiences what they want.”
Last year, the event was headlined by Gerardo Ortiz, Junior H, and Luis R. Conriquez.
