One night on the Costa Verde
The Lima date falls on November 24, 2026. Eros Ramazzotti brings his Una Historia Importante World Tour to Arena 1 for a single show in the Peruvian capital.
The tour takes its name from “Una storia importante”, the 1985 song that made him famous well beyond Italy. In Latin America it is best known in Spanish as “Una historia importante”. Ramazzotti recorded much of his catalogue in both languages, so a Lima crowd knows the Spanish words by heart.
Songs his Latin American audience grew up with include:
- “Una historia importante”
- “Cosas de la vida” (his 1997 duet partner was Tina Turner)
- “La cosa más bella”
- “Otra como tú”
- “Si bastasen un par de canciones”
The facts given here include no setlist, support act or stage times. This guide does not guess at them.
Arena 1 and getting there
Arena 1 is an open-air concert ground on the Costa Verde, the strip of land at the bottom of the cliffs below San Miguel. The Pacific is on one side and the coastal highway runs along the other.
No metro or Metropolitano line runs down to the shore. That shapes how people get there:
- Ride-hailing apps (Uber, Cabify, InDrive) are what most concertgoers use from Miraflores, San Isidro or Barranco.
- Taxis come down the bajadas, the roads that drop from the clifftop districts to the coast road.
- Driving means queueing on a single coastal highway, and traffic there slows down sharply around big shows.
From Miraflores the drive north along the Circuito de Playas is short when traffic is light. After the encore it takes far longer, because thousands of people leave at once.
What a Lima arena night is like
November is late spring in Lima. Nights on the coast are cool and damp, and the sea breeze crosses an open venue with no roof. Most locals bring a light jacket, even after a warm day.
The ground is a large flat field facing a temporary stage, with zones split by ticket category. Food and drink stalls line the edges. Bags are searched at the gates, as at every big concert in Lima, so most people carry little.
The ticketing platform for the show publishes its seating zones and entry rules. Most visitors to Lima stay in Miraflores or Barranco and treat the concert as their whole evening.
Singing along, Peruvian style
Peruvian audiences sing, and they sing loudly. Ramazzotti’s Spanish versions are radio standards here, so whole choruses come back to him from the field. Fans who know the Italian originals often sing those instead, and nobody minds.
A few habits that help:
- Payment: soles in cash and card both work at most stalls. Lima concertgoers also lean heavily on Yape and Plin for small payments.
- Getting home: many people walk a little way from the gates before they open an app. Prices and waiting times right at the exit jump after a show.
- Meeting up: phone signal often weakens in a packed crowd, so groups usually pick a landmark at the venue to meet at.
- Language: a “gracias” or “permiso” (excuse me) when you squeeze past people goes a long way in a tight crowd.
