Pixies Play Lima on 15 April 2027

The Pixies, a Boston rock band, added Lima to their 2027 South American tour on 15 October. Joinnus is named as the seller, but sales and prices are not yet confirmed.

The Pixies, the Boston alternative rock band, play Lima on Thursday, 15 April 2027. The show is on the Explanada del Parque de la Exposición, beside downtown, and a ticket site names Joinnus as the seller.

Lima is one of six dates added on 15 October to a South American tour of nine shows. Sales are announced for Tuesday, 20 October at 10:00 a.m., and official prices are not yet confirmed.

The Pixies formed in Boston in 1986 and are among the best-known American alternative rock bands. Consequence, a US music outlet, reports the band marked its 40th anniversary in 2026 with shows on three continents.

Their latest studio album, The Night the Zombies Came, came out in 2024. The 2027 South American run covers nine shows in six countries between 25 March and 17 April.

Santiago, Buenos Aires and São Paulo were announced in August. Frutillar, Montevideo, Curitiba, Brasília, Lima and Bogotá were added on Thursday, 15 October.

Lima is the penultimate stop on the tour. The final show is two days later, on Saturday, 17 April 2027, at Movistar Arena in Bogotá.

Bassist Paz Lenchantin left the band in 2024, Infobae reports. The same outlet says Emma Richardson is expected to play bass at the Bogotá show.

No source opened for this article names the bassist for Lima. Songkick, a concert listing site, puts the band’s previous Lima visit about 12 years ago.

The concert is on the Explanada del Parque de la Exposición, on Avenida 28 de Julio in central Lima. Lima Easy, a local guide, places the park next to downtown, on the site of the former south city gate.

The park holds the Museo de Arte, in the Palacio de Exposición that opened in 1872. It also has gardens, monuments and a Japanese garden given by Japan.

Songkick lists a separate venue in the park, the Anfiteatro del Parque de la Exposición, so do not confuse the two. Listings name the esplanade for the Pixies, so check your ticket before you travel.

No transport or traffic plan for the show has been published. The State Department advises using app-based or hotel-arranged taxis rather than hailing cars on the street.

Book your ride home in advance and agree a pick-up point away from the crowd. Lima crowds and traffic are hard to predict, so leave extra time.

Tu Entrada, a Peruvian ticket-information site, names Joinnus as the seller for the Lima show. The same listing says sales open on Tuesday, 20 October at 10:00 a.m.

Joinnus is a Peruvian ticketing platform, and its own event page could not be read for this article. Treat the 20 October start as announced but not confirmed by the seller.

No ticket prices are quoted here because the seller’s page could not be checked. The Tu Entrada listing mentions card discounts, but those terms are also unconfirmed.

Peru’s currency is the sol (S/), at 3.44 per US$1 on 16 October 2026, from open.er-api.com. At that rate S/100 is about US$29.

Buy only from the seller named by the promoter and open the page yourself. Resale sites and social media offers are the usual route for fake tickets.

US citizens need no visa for tourist stays of 90 days or less, the State Department says. Your passport must be valid for at least six months from the date you enter.

Border officers set your approved stay at entry, and overstays bring fines you must pay before leaving. Check that your entry is stamped on arrival.

The State Department rates Peru Level 2, exercise increased caution, because of crime, civil unrest and kidnapping risk. The advisory page shows an issue date of 16 May 2025, and it may change before April.

Petty theft and muggings often happen in daylight, and demonstrations can close roads without warning. Keep your phone secure and out of view in public, and enroll in the Smart Traveler Enrollment Program for embassy alerts.

No vaccines are required for entry, and the State Department advises drinking sealed bottled water. It names altitude sickness as a concern in Cusco and Lake Titicaca, not in coastal Lima.

Many private hospitals ask for payment up front, so the State Department urges travel insurance with medical evacuation. Buy it when you book flights and hotels.

Lima uses UTC minus 5 all year. In April that puts the city one hour behind New York and level with Chicago.

A US fan can see the Pixies in South America, and Songkick lists the band’s last Lima visit as 12 years ago. A trip in April 2027 means booking about six months ahead.

Wait for the official Joinnus page before buying flights, since prices and the start time are not yet confirmed. Add a day on either side of the show for delays and for the park.

Fans who follow the tour can also reach Bogotá on Saturday, 17 April 2027. Infobae says the Bogotá presale ran from 16 to 19 October through Tu Boleta.

The start time, door time and set length have not been published. The capacity, the standing and seated layout and the age policy are also unknown.

Official ticket prices and discount terms could not be confirmed with Joinnus. No source opened for this article names the organiser.

The band’s own tour page listed no dates when opened on Saturday, 17 October. The date and venue rest on Consequence, Infobae and the Tu Entrada listing.

The Lima line-up and any support act are not confirmed. Infobae names Emma Richardson only for Bogotá.

Joinnus sales are announced for Tuesday, 20 October at 10:00 a.m. Lima time, which is 11:00 a.m. in New York. That is the first moment the official page should show prices.

The tour opens on Thursday, 25 March 2027, in Frutillar, Chile. No other Peruvian date has been announced.

The Pixies play on Thursday, 15 April 2027, on the Explanada del Parque de la Exposición in central Lima. The start time has not been published.
