Colombian fans will soon have the chance to once again enjoy the music of Jamiroquai, after a 16-year absence. This Saturday, September 19, 2026, the British band, fronted by Jay Kay, will perform at the Coliseo MedPlus in Bogota as part of its Latin American tour. The concert is a celebration of the 30th anniversary of their hit single 'Virtual Insanity', released in 1996.
This return to Colombia marks Jamiroquai's second visit to the country. Their first performance took place in 2010 at the Nemcatacoa Festival in Cajica, alongside other notable artists including Green Day, Cobra Starship, and The Bravery. Since then, the group had not toured in Colombia, making this performance a highly anticipated return.
The Latin America Tour 2026, which includes stops in Chile, Argentina, and Mexico, aims to commemorate the 30th anniversary of 'Virtual Insanity'. The band's original hit became an international sensation, earning a Video of the Year at the 1997 MTV Video Music Awards and a Grammy, as well as selling over eight million copies worldwide. It also holds the Guinness World Record for the best-selling funk album.
Jay Kay, the band's constant member since its inception in London in 1992, has led Jamiroquai through a career that has spanned more than three decades. Their music, which blends funk and acid jazz with influences from a range of other genres, has consistently attracted fans worldwide. The band's discography includes albums such as Synkronized, A Funk Odyssey, Dynamite, Rock Dust Light Star, and Automaton.
With a new ninth studio album in the works, Jamiroquai's musical journey continues to captivate audiences around the globe.
