Bad Bunny's nonprofit organization is continuing to create new opportunities in Puerto Rico for youth interested in the arts.
Fundación Good Bunny has announced the 2026 edition of Un Verano Contigo, which offers free educational and cultural activities for young people on the island. This year, 270 participants will be part of a three-week program that focuses on subjects including art, fashion, music and sports.
According to a press release, artists, educators and creative professionals from across the island will join the activities taking place at Universidad del Sagrado Corazon in San Juan. The program features an expanded curriculum with new educational experiences, specialized mentorships and opportunities for professional development - all curated to encourage participants to learn about career paths in creative industries.
"I have always believed that there is incredible talent in Puerto Rico. There are young people with ideas, creativity, and the drive to move forward all across the island," said José "Che Juan" Torres, director of the Good Bunny Foundation. "Often, what is needed is access to experiences, tools, and people who inspire them to keep growing. Being able to help more young people discover their potential, build self-confidence, and see new possibilities for their future is something we value immensely."
Music programs will offer tracks at beginner, intermediate and advanced levels, to accommodate people with different tiers of knowledge. Meanwhile, workshops and mentorships will oversee music production, performance, audio recording and beatmaking. The program also includes networking opportunities and showcases with local musicians.
Bad Bunny is on the Debí Tirar Más Fotos World Tour, which kicked off in 2025, following his 30-show residency in the Coliseo de Puerto Rico José Miguel Agrelot. In June, Billboard Boxscore reported that the tour is the Puerto Rican artist's "biggest trek ever" in both gross and attendance, making El Conejo Malo the first Latin artist to gross $1 billion in touring. The six-time Grammy winner, who is currently on the European leg of the tour, is set to perform his last show on July 26 in Warsaw, Poland.
Bad Bunny has accomplished significant historical milestones on the Billboard charts since the release of Debí Tirar Más Fotos in January 2025. The album hit No. 1 on the Billboard 200, dated Jan. 25, 2025. After his win for album of the year at the Grammys, which was followed by a nine-time Emmy-nominated Super Bowl halftime show performance, the album returned to No. 1 in February 2026.
