Mexican pop singer María José shared a heartfelt farewell to renowned producer Pedro Torres, who passed away recently, marking an emotional moment in her career just days before returning to the stage in the Mexican Caribbean.

The message, published on her verified social media accounts, was accompanied by behind-the-scenes images from past creative projects they worked on together. Fans and industry figures alike interpreted the post as a respectful tribute to a collaborator who played an important role in her professional journey.

Confirmed Carnival Dates in Quintana Roo

Despite the loss, María José continues with her scheduled performances and will be part of two of the most anticipated Carnival celebrations in the region:

  • February 14: Cozumel Carnival, at Moby Dick
  • February 16: Cancún Carnival, at Malecón Tajamar

Both concerts are expected to draw large crowds and are part of the free, open-air events that make Carnival season in Quintana Roo especially attractive for visitors.

A Meaningful Moment Before Cancún

María José’s appearance in Cancún comes at a particularly meaningful time, blending celebration with reflection. Rather than stepping away, the singer has chosen to honor Pedro Torres’ memory by staying connected to her audience through live music.

For travelers planning a February getaway, her performances add another highlight to the Carnival experience, combining Mexican pop music, vibrant street celebrations, and the unique atmosphere of the Caribbean coast.

Why it matters for visitors:
Carnival in Cozumel and Cancún offers more than parades and costumes — it delivers major live shows in iconic locations. María José’s concerts are shaping up to be standout moments for tourists looking to experience local culture, music, and nightlife in one trip.

Note: Dates and venues are confirmed as of January 2026. Event details may be subject to last-minute changes during Carnival week.
