Mega Mezcla on Tour
WSKQ-FM, better known as Mega 97.9, is a tropical-themed Latino-focused radio station emanating from New York City. Owned by the Spanish Broadcasting System, Mega 97.9 is the most listened-to radio station in the city, passing such luminaries as Z100 and Lite FM. In fact, Mega 97.9 is also the most listened-to Latino radio station in the country, which speaks to its strong appeal with Hispanic listeners in the tri-state area.
To capitalize on that success, the station has set up the Mega Mezcla concert series, an annual showcase for some of the best and most popular acts in Latino music. The 2018 edition took place at the Prudential Center in Newark, New Jersey, and featured acts like Ozuna, Nicky Jam, and J Balvin, as well as the host, Mega 97.9 DJ Alex Sensation. The 2019 edition, taking place on April 20, 2019, will also be held at the Prudential Center.
Mega 97.9 has a long history in the tri-state area, dating back to 1983, when SBS purchased WVNJ in New Jersey and converted it to Super KQ, a Spanish-language adult contemporary station. It wasn't until 1993, however, after years of struggling with ratings, that Mega 97.9 was born. It featured a shift toward the more tropical dance vibes that can still be heard on the station to this day. Think salsa, merengue, bachata, and reggaeton.
Aside from the Mega Mezcla, perhaps the most famous of Mega 97.9's programs is the morning show El Vacilón de la Mañana, which is one of the most listened-to Spanish morning shows in the country and sometimes the most popular morning show in all of New York. The impact of Mega 97.9 is felt across the country; the morning show is syndicated in Latino-heavy markets like Miami, Atlanta, and even Puerto Rico.

by Mamita Taty on 5/30/22Prudential Center - NewarkWe had a great time! We enjoyed all the performances!
Rating: 5 out of 5 Ivy Queen didn't show
by Lauren T. on 5/30/22Prudential Center - NewarkOverall it sucked. Granted i was in the nosebleed section but the music barely reached up to where i was. I dont know if the speakers weren't strong enough or what but with all the money they get from ticket sales they should have that part on point. The bartenders were a joke and understaffed. The show was SO long and not in a good way. They kept doing 10 minute intermissions like they were stalling for something. By the end people were leaving before the show was over because we were all tired lol. And the big name i was waiting for was for Ivy Queen to perform but she was a no show smh. Not sure if they just put her name down for ticket sales or what. A couple years ago same situation happened with another artist. Major disappointment. I will not be going again.

Rating: 1 out of 5 Audio was really bad.
by P. R. on 5/30/22Audio was really bad. Could not hear what the singers were saying. Singers microphone volume was too low. Bad audio engineer.

Rating: 4 out of 5 The show was great but alot of subs
by Danny on 5/30/22Prudential Center - NewarkWe all expected Ivy queen and some more to come, and seemed like alot of time was wasted on waiting for rappers to either get there or get ready
Rating: 3 out of 5 Not terrible
by Deehz on 5/30/22Prudential Center - NewarkOverall it was a decent event but it felt somewhat padded with a few artists that nobody really cared for. The old school artists were great but it was a big letdown that they advertised Ivy Queen and she did not show. Had I known I’d have left earlier.
Rating: 4 out of 5 good
by c on 5/30/22Prudential Center - NewarkThe concert was good, i’m disappointed Ivy Queen didn’t preform as to i originally got the tickets to see her. Other than that the concert was good.

Rating: 3 out of 5 Concert
by Lexxi on 5/30/22Prudential Center - NewarkThe concert was good but had a few glitches with sound and expected a headliner Ivy Queen and no announcement was made she was not performing...i know smoking weed is legal but to smoke it indoors at a venue it's not recommended
Rating: 1 out of 5 To much intermission time. Too long..
by Tania on 5/30/22Prudential Center - NewarkStarted out great... but after a while started playing the same songs during intermission. Gave too many breaks... the performance stated off great but than slowly died down.. this all could have lashes 4 hrs if they kept the artist rolling. But 6 hrs.... and than ivy queen didn't show up. I felt like I paid too much and got played.
Rating: 3 out of 5 Need to improve
by Johnny on 5/30/22Prudential Center - NewarkThe concert was ok, but they really need to improve the sound, many sound issues with the microphone and also 2 artists didn’t showed up? That was very disappointing
Rating: 3 out of 5 Waited for one artist
by Disappointed on 5/30/22Prudential Center - NewarkThe concert was too long, I was waiting to see ivy queen and Wisin y Yandel. I wish they would’ve told us ahead of team that these artists were not going to show up. I did not like how they waited a long time in between the second half of the sets. The concert could’ve been shorter. The artists that did show up were pretty good. There were some mic issues as well.
