Ricardo Gallardo Cardona, governor of San Luis Potosí, presented last week the poster for the Potosina National Fair (Fenapo) in its 2024 edition. A poster alluding to the four zones of the state with references to the work of Leonora Carrington.
At the event, he presented the cline-up of artists who will perform at the Teatro del Pueblo. Right there, he mentioned that there will be a surprise guest artistof which he only said that It is of international stature and very high-grossing.
Below, we present a brief list of artists who meet this characteristic, and could be the guest artist that the governor of San Luis Potosí was referring to.
1.- Taylor Swift
The American singer is one of the most popular in the current era, and without a doubt, the one that best defines the description made by Gallardo Cardona.
The Teatro del Pueblo stage would be one of the busiest in its presentation, as it is a free and open forum for the attendees of this Potosí festival.
2.- Luis Miguel
In December 2023, “el Sol” performed in the capital of Potosí, as part of his “Luis Miguel Tour 2023” tour, in which The state government gave away access to this concert held at the “Plan de San Luis” stadium, which would speak of a close relationship between the artist’s team and the state executive.
Furthermore, it is one of the most listened to and selling artists of the last decades, Therefore, its show at Fenapo could consolidate this fair as an international forum.
3.- Metallica
At the beginning of 2024, and after the presentation of Till Lindemann at the San Luis Potosí Arts Center, Governor Ricardo Gallardo said that They were looking for artists outside the usual genres
of those presented, mentioning Metallica as one of the artists they were looking for.
Although the American band does not have other confirmed dates outside of its tour in Mexico City, It could be a surprise kept by the band and the state government.
4.- Tiësto
One of the suspicions to believe in the arrival of the Dutch DJ is that During the presentation of Fenapo 2024 on June 18, he was mentioned “erroneously.”
Although it could be a mistake when confusing him with DJ Steve Aoki (confirmed for Fenapo 2024), It leaves open the possibility of another international DJ arriving in Potosí lands.

5.- Featherweight
The regional Mexican genre and the corridos tumbados occupy a special place among the Fenapo 2024 lineup, with the presentation of Intocable, Vive Chihuahua, Xavi, among others, so the presentation of the “double P” should not be ruled out.
However, one of the factors against this theory is that The Zapopan native is at the highest point of his career, and is on an exhaustive tour of the United States. Could you make a space in your agenda?
The truth is that Governor Ricardo Gallardo himself He announced that with the presentation of the surprise artist, it will be difficult to exceed the expectation for the 2025 edition. of the biggest festival of the people of Potosí.
