In addition to touring the U.S., El Alfa will visit fans in Europe and Latin America, with dates already set for Spain, Mexico, Chile and Germany, to name a few.
In January, the artist announced his retirement from music and a social media break, following the death of his grandmother Ramonita.
'Her happiness was to see me succeed, but I can't even stay awake!!,' he expressed in an Instagram post. 'I say goodbye momentarily to my audience that loves me. I'll be back soon, goodbye Instagram. I could have spent more time with her but my work didn't allow it. The days of my retirement are getting shorter. On December 18th of this year, I will never sing again. Rest in peace grandma. I love you.'
Tickets for El Último Baile go on sale at noon local time on Thursday (May 15) through El Alfa's official website.
