The Spanish tenor Placido Domingo is set to perform a concert in Cancun to help promote this tourist destination, informed the Cancun Convention & Visitors Bureau.

The concert will be held on August 29, which is expected to attract many visitors to this vacation destination that was badly affected by the Influenza contingency which left empty hotels and scared of tourism during the month of May.  Placido Domingo canceled a planned concert in Washington to offer it in Cancun.

 “It´s a form of collaboration due to the fact that he had already a programmed concert in Washington, but decided to cancel it, to help support Mexico in these harsh times, so August 29 is the tempting date, which still must be confirmed in 10 days”.

The company Triada will be in charge of promoting this magnum event, which is owned by the distinguished Mexican journalist Ricardo Rocha, and there are four possible locations for the concert in Cancun starting with Cancun Convention Center, Moon Palace Hotel and the Baseball Stadium Andres Quintana Roo and Beto Avila, downtown.
