Ricky Martin tickets for a Latin pop concert at Quai Milliquet in Pully on the main lake festival stage

Ricky Martin on the shore of Lake Geneva

Ricky Martin comes to Pully as one of the most recognizable voices of Latin pop, a performer whose hits long ago crossed the boundaries of the genre and became part of shared pop memory. The concert at Quai Milliquet is part of the Pully Live Festival, a program that from June 24 to 27, 2026, takes over the shore of port de Pully by Lac Léman. For visitors traveling from Lausanne, Vaud, or outside Switzerland, this means an evening in which a major pop career is placed in an open lakeside setting, without the classic distance of a large arena.

Since the ticket is valid for one festival day, it is useful to distinguish the daily event slot from the concert schedule on the main stage. The festival program for June 24 lists Grande scène, standing area, Caroline Alves at 20:45 and Ricky Martin at 22:00. This is the most important practical information for planning arrival, especially for an audience that wants to arrive earlier, avoid crowds at the entrance, and catch the rhythm of the evening before the main performance. Tickets for this event are in demand.

Why this concert is more than a nostalgic return

Ricky Martin is not a performer who can be reduced to one song, although "Livin' la Vida Loca" remains one of the most recognizable moments of global pop from the late nineties. His career began much earlier, through Menudo and the Latin American pop scene, and then expanded toward the world market with songs such as "María", "La Copa de la Vida", "Vuelve", "She Bangs", "Pégate" and "Vente Pa' Ca". That catalog explains why audiences see him both as a pop star and as a performer whose concerts naturally lead toward dance.

His style combines pop, Latin rhythms, dance production, ballads, and choruses that work well in a large open space. The contrast is important here as well: Martin can, within the same concert experience, open up space for euphoric songs with a clear rhythm, and then calm it down with ballads that the audience sings along with him. It is precisely this shift in energy that makes his performances accessible to a wide audience, not only to those who have followed Latin pop since the nineties.

For longtime fans, the appeal is clear: this is an opportunity to hear songs that marked radio decades, television performances, and the era of major crossover singles. For a younger audience, the concert is a different kind of encounter - live with a performer whose songs constantly return through remixes, new collaborations, social networks, and playlist culture. That is why Pully is not just a stop on the calendar, but a well-chosen festival framework for a performer who relies on contact with the audience.

The current phase of the career and new versions of old songs

Ahead of summer 2026, Ricky Martin is not present only through old hits. His newer releases show that he is actively rearranging his own catalog and connecting it with new audiences. At the end of 2025, a new version of "A Medio Vivir" with Carín León was released, and in 2026 came "Vuelve" in collaboration with Los Ángeles Azules and TINI. That version is especially interesting because it moves the emotional ballad from the late nineties toward cumbia, preserving its melodic recognizability while giving it a more mobile rhythm.

In June 2026, "Estranho" also appeared, the Portuguese version of the song "Te Extraño, Te Olvido, Te Amo" with Luan Santana. This is not only a translation of an old hit, but a sign that Martin is opening his archive toward different Latin and Lusophone scenes. For the concert audience, this is important context: even when the exact set list is not known, it is clear that the current phase of his career is not focused only on archiving success, but on a new reading of the songs that built him.

What the audience can expect from the concert experience

The program does not list special guests for the performance in Pully nor does it confirm the set list, so it would be wrong to announce individual songs as certain. Still, the profile of the performer gives a fairly clear picture of the kind of evening: a rhythmic pop concert, many choruses known to a broad audience, and an alternation of dance moments with ballads. With Ricky Martin, stage movement is also important. His concert reputation is tied to energetic performance, choreographic discipline, and the way songs are built toward communal singing.

For an audience that does not speak Spanish, the barrier is small. Part of his catalog has already entered international pop deeply, and the choruses are designed to carry the atmosphere even when every word is not understood. Precisely for that reason, this concert will probably attract several layers of audience: Latin pop fans, festival visitors who want an open-air dance evening, tourists in the Lausanne region, and those who want to see a performer whose name belongs to the history of global pop.

• For fans of classics: the important hits are those that connected him with audiences from Latin America to Europe.
• For the festival audience: the combination of dance, pop production, and open space by the lake is attractive.
• For travelers to the region: Pully offers a concert outing that can easily be connected with Lausanne, Lutry, and a walk along Lac Léman.
• For younger listeners: new versions of songs open the catalog through collaborations with current performers and genres.

Quai Milliquet as a concert space

Quai Milliquet is not a neutral address. It is the shore by port de Pully, a space where the view toward Lac Léman and the closeness of the water become part of the arrival, the waiting, and the very feeling of the evening. In 2026, Pully Live Festival presents itself as a four-day musical gathering on the quays, with concerts, DJ sets, bars, food trucks, and animations. For the Ricky Martin concert, this means that the audience does not come only to an enclosed hall and leave immediately after the final chorus; the rhythm of the evening begins earlier, on the festival grounds.

Such a space also changes the impression of the performance. A standing configuration on the main stage requires more movement, faster audience flow, and readiness for longer standing. This suits a performer whose concerts rely on dance energy. At the same time, the shore location gives a different kind of closeness: the audience gathers in a space that has a horizon, air, and a summer rhythm, not just an acoustically enclosed concert box. It is worth securing tickets in time.

Practical information for arrival

The festival encourages arrival by public transport. According to access information, bus lines 7, 9, 21, and 47 lead to the festival grounds. From Pully Gare-Nord to the location is about a 20-minute walk, and from Pully Gare-Sud about a 15-minute walk. TL line 47 connects the railway part of Pully with the Pully-Port stop. In summer, arriving by CGN boat is also an interesting option, because the journey to the concert then becomes part of the lakeside experience.

For visitors arriving by car, it is important to count on limited space along the shore and on the fact that the festival organization gives priority to public transport. The city of Pully is generally well connected: it has two railway stations, eight urban bus lines, and two regional bus lines. This makes arrival from Lausanne easier, as well as the return after the evening program, with a check of the last connections before departure.

• Event address: Quai Milliquet - Port de Pully, Route du Port 2, 1009 Pully.
• Main stage: Grande scène, standing area.
• Day program: Caroline Alves at 20:45, Ricky Martin at 22:00.
• Entrance to the festival grounds: the gates of the festival grounds open at 16:30.
• Paid concert zone: opening at 17:30 has been announced for Wednesday.
• Transport: bus, train, pedestrian access from Pully, and CGN boat during the season.

Pully as host for traveling audiences

Pully is immediately next to Lausanne, but it has its own rhythm: a lakeside port, promenades, family facilities, and proximity to Lavaux. For those arriving earlier, it makes sense to plan a relaxed arrival, a walk by the water, and enough time to enter the festival grounds. Lausanne Tourisme points out that Pully, along with its port and typical houses, also has facilities for families, while in the center near the Prieuré there is a Roman villa with a 15-meter-long fresco that can be visited during the warmer part of the year.

This local dimension is especially important for a concert held in the middle of the week. Instead of arriving at the last moment, the better plan is to arrive early enough, check the entrance, choose a place in the standing area, and leave time for food or a drink in the festival zone. Since there are no seats in the concert zone, comfortable shoes and layered clothing make more sense than an evening formal look. The lakeside air can change the perceived temperature after sunset.

Rules and small details that can change the evening

Before departure, it is good to pay attention to the festival conditions, especially if you are coming with children or people who need accessible entry. The festival states that the space is accessible to people with reduced mobility, but reserved places are limited. The rules for young audiences emphasize that children must be accompanied by an adult and have an identification document, and hearing protection is especially recommended for younger visitors. The organizer also states that earplugs are available at the info point.

On the festival grounds, part of the payment is organized without cash, with exceptions at food trucks and stands. This is useful information for visitors coming from outside Switzerland who are used to relying on cash. It is even more important to check the public transport schedule for the return, because Ricky Martin's concert, according to the program, begins late in the evening. Places disappear quickly.

An evening for Latin pop fans and a wider audience

The best reason to come is not only the possibility of hearing one of the global hits live. Ricky Martin is a performer whose career is built on transitions: from a boy band into a solo career, from the Latin market into world pop, from ballads into dance anthems, from the nineties into a new era of collaborations and digital returns. The concert in Pully therefore has multiple entry points for the audience. Someone comes for "María", someone for "Livin' la Vida Loca", someone for "Vuelve", and someone simply for a summer festival outing by Lac Léman.

Pully Live Festival gathers several different pop and dance names that same week, which places Martin's performance in a wider festival framework, not in an isolated concert format. The program, over four days, includes performers of different styles, from pop and electronic music to concert names with major radio recognizability. Ricky Martin opens that sequence as a performer whose repertoire naturally calls for an audience ready to sing and dance.

For the visitor, the wisest approach is simple: arrive earlier, follow the main-stage schedule, prepare for standing, and view the concert as a full-evening festival outing, not as a short arrival for one song. That is the value of this location. Quai Milliquet gives the evening a summer frame, Pully makes access from Lausanne easier, and Ricky Martin brings a catalog that is easily recognized after the first few bars.
