Don Omar

Sat, Oct 10, 2026 · 8:00 PM ETBarclays Center · Brooklyn

Don Omar brings The Last King World Tour to Barclays Center on Saturday, October 10, 2026 at 8 PM. It is one of two New York-area nights on the tour: according to the artist's official tour list, he plays Brooklyn on October 10 and Newark on October 11, part of a North American run that began in Reading, Pennsylvania in late September. For fans who grew up on the reggaetón pioneer's catalog, this is a chance to see him in a Brooklyn arena setting rather than a festival slot. Barclays Center opens doors 60 minutes before the scheduled start. The arena sits at Atlantic and Flatbush avenues above the Atlantic Av–Barclays Ctr subway station, which is served by several lines, plus the LIRR at Atlantic Terminal.

If the first night sells out, this Wednesday date is the other chance to catch the tour in New York. Barclays Center is at Atlantic and Flatbush avenues, directly above the Atlantic Av–Barclays Ctr subway station, with LIRR service next door at Atlantic Terminal.
