Live Nation and Dale Play Announce Strategic Partnership to Expand Live Spanish-Language Music in Argentina

Live Nation Entertainment and Dale Play today announced a strategic partnership to continue expanding live Spanish-language music in Argentina and supporting the development of Latin and regional artists.

As part of the agreement, Live Nation will acquire a majority stake in Dale Play Live. Dale Play Founder and CEO Federico Lauria will continue leading its creative and strategic direction and contributing to the development of Latin artists and Spanish-language content across global markets.

The addition of Dale Play bolsters Live Nation’s presence in Argentina, combining international expertise with local artist development and a strong cultural connection with new generations of artists and audiences.

DF Entertainment, Live Nation’s long-standing partner in Argentina, will continue playing a central role in the growth and expansion of international live music events in the country, while Dale Play will contribute its expertise in the development of Spanish-language artists and local content.

“Buenos Aires is the second largest music market in South America and a priority for Live Nation,” said Michael Rapino, President and CEO of Live Nation Entertainment. “The addition of Dale Play complements our existing partnership with DF Entertainment and strengthens our commitment to Argentina and the growth of Spanish-language music in the region and throughout the world.”

“Dale Play was founded with the vision of supporting artists and building a platform that empowers them to grow locally and globally,” said Lauria. “Being partners with Live Nation represents a tremendous opportunity to continue expanding artists from Argentina and Latin America to the world.”
