Rock, indie, reggae, alternative music and Caribbean fusion will come together again at the fifth edition of Color Caribe, running from Nov. 28 to 30, 2025, at Parque Agroturístico El Dorado, in Dorado.
According to the organizers, this edition continues the festival's mission of creating an inclusive space where art, Caribbean culture and diverse musical acts converge.
Those who want to attend can reserve free tickets through TicketeraPR. The festival has confirmed that Friday tickets are already sold out, but spots are still available for Saturday and Sunday.
Sports and art show up 🎨
Color Caribe 2025 has partnered with Fundación Patinetero, a nonprofit dedicated to promoting skateboarding among Puerto Rican youth, to install a U-ramp. There, professional athletes brought in by Snickers will give demonstrations on all three days of the event.
The festival will also feature prominent muralists from Puerto Rico and the Dominican Republic in a collaborative project. Local artists include Alexis Díaz, David Zayas and Bik Ismo, while the international guests will be Willy Gomez, Kilia and Angurria.
Artists Krónico and Elizabeth Barreto will also present solo exhibitions during the event.
Road to Color Caribe
In late October, Color Caribe announced rock band Monstera PR as the winner of its first musical competition, Road to Color Caribe. The prize: a spot on the official Saturday lineup and closing that day of the festival.
The competition, held between September and October in Mayagüez, San Juan and Bayamón, aimed to promote diversity and inclusion and to give visibility to emerging acts within the local music scene. The finalist groups included Kristal Fonrodona, Versomudo and Ed Harvest.
