Daddy Yankee Brings Faith-Focused Testimony to Costa Rica

Puerto Rican artist Daddy Yankee plans to visit Costa Rica later this month to present his conference “El Testimonio.” The event takes place on Sunday, February 22, at Auditorio Casa Pasión in San José.

Known for hits like “Gasolina,” the singer retired from music in 2023 to dedicate his life to his Christian faith. He announced this change during his farewell tour, stating he now lives for a higher purpose. In “El Testimonio,” Yankee will discuss his journey, including challenges and his decision to embrace spirituality.

Three sessions are scheduled: 7:30 a.m., 10:30 a.m., and 2:00 p.m. The morning slots sold out quickly, showing strong public interest. Entry is free, but limited. Listeners can win spots for the 2:00 p.m. session through Radio Unción 106.7 FM.

This marks Yankee’s return to Costa Rica in a new role, away from concerts. His last local appearance was in 2022 during “La Última Vuelta” tour. Fans expect an inspiring talk on faith and change.
