The tour was commercially successful and sold out in just minutes. Initially only seven dates were announced but due to high demand more shows were added. The first 14 shows in the United States earned US$23.1 million from 176,931 tickets sold and Billboard predicted that the North American leg could reach $50 million in ticket sales.[2]
On March 12, 2020, the group announced via their social networks that they had to postpone their second concert in Miami and stated "After the recent announcement from the Miami mayor, Aventura's sold-out concert tonight at American Airlines was postponed.[3] After that, they decided to postpone their concerts to July and August. However, all remaining concerts were cancelled due the COVID-19 pandemic.
In 2021, the group had announced that they would return on tour. However, instead of doing the shows at the originally planned venues, they decided to perform five stadium shows to complete their tour in the United States.[4] Only four were done as for some unknown reason they had cancelled one of them. In December 2021, they had their last two concerts together at the Félix Sánchez Olympic Stadium in Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic.
