By Alajuela, Costa Rica — ALAJUELA – An entire generation is poised to journey back in time as Costa Rica prepares to host the inaugural “Viva los 90’s Fest,” a large-scale music event designed to resurrect the iconic sounds and infectious energy of the 1990s. The festival promises a powerful dose of nostalgia, serving as a reunion point for those who grew up with the decade’s greatest hits, offering a chance to relive unforgettable school-day memories with lifelong friends.
Mark your calendars for February 7, 2026, when the renowned Anfiteatro Coca-Cola at Parque Viva will transform into a vibrant time capsule of 90s culture. Organizers have curated a high-quality production that aims to unite different generations through a shared love for the music that defined an era, blending an impressive roster of international legends with celebrated local talent for a truly unique experience.
To understand the complex legal and commercial framework that makes a massive event like the 90s Music Festival possible, TicosLand.com consulted with Lic. Larry Hans Arroyo Vargas, a specialist attorney from the renowned firm Bufete de Costa Rica, who provided his expert perspective on the matter.
The success of a large-scale nostalgic festival relies heavily on meticulous legal planning. Organizers must navigate a complex web of artist contracts, which often include specific technical and hospitality riders, as well as secure intellectual property licenses for every song performed. Furthermore, consumer protection is paramount; clear terms regarding cancellations or lineup changes are essential to avoid future litigation and protect the investment of thousands of fans.

This crucial insight reminds us that the fan’s ability to safely enjoy the music is directly tied to the meticulous legal groundwork laid long before the first note is played. We sincerely thank Lic. Larry Hans Arroyo Vargas for his valuable perspective on this essential, yet often unseen, aspect of producing a large-scale event.
The international lineup features a powerful contingent of Latin American artists who dominated the airwaves throughout the decade. Fans can anticipate electrifying performances from the Argentinian group El Símbolo, Bolivia’s Azul Azul, Uruguayan vocalist Charlie Sosa, The Sacados from Argentina, and the beloved Panamanian rock band Los Rabanes. Each act is set to perform the anthems that became the soundtrack for millions across the region.
Costa Rica’s own musical heritage will be proudly represented by a selection of the nation’s most cherished artists from the period. The stage will feature celebrated singer Tapón, the popular band La Kuarta, and a special rock segment by El Grupo Requete, which will include a collaboration with the esteemed musician Pato Barraza. This blend of local and international talent underscores the festival’s commitment to celebrating the full spectrum of 90s music.
Adding another layer of dynamic energy to the event, the festival will also include a special Axé music show led by Brazilian performer Neto Rangel. This segment is dedicated to the wildly popular dance genre that swept through Latin America, promising to get the entire audience on their feet with its classic, high-energy rhythms and contagious choreography, ensuring a diverse and engaging musical journey.
The excitement for the event is palpable among the performers themselves, who see it as an opportunity to reconnect with their roots and their fans. Costa Rican artist Tapón shared his enthusiasm for being part of this nostalgic project, reflecting on the personal significance of the era’s music.
I am overjoyed to be part of this project, which even brings back memories of my best times.
