The Viva Puerto Rico Tour was a tour performed by Puerto Rican recording artist Ivy Queen. In association with Score, Grande Entertainment, and Club Papi, the tour was launched on January 28, 2014.

The tour will include performances at various gay clubs in cities of the United States, such as New York, Orlando, Miami, Houston, Seattle, San Francisco, San Diego, Atlanta, Sacramento, and Los Angeles. Performances in Boston and Tampa have also been confirmed as well. A performance in Puerto Rico was not planned, however due to the tour's success, a performance in Ponce was announced. The tour also caused Ivy Queen's eighth studio album Musa (2012) to reenter the Billboard Latin Albums chart at number thirty-six for the week of February 9, 2014.

Background

In 2008, Ivy Queen received an award from GLAAD for her support of the gay community. Ivy Queen headlined the Machete Music Tour 2010, which performed in cities such as New York and Los Angeles and featured "the hottest stars in reggaeton and Latin urban music", including Chino & Nacho, Flex, Jowell & Randy, Tego Calderon, Don Omar, Cosculluela, Angel & Khriz, J-King & Maximan and R.K.M & Ken-Y.

After the success of Queen's eighth studio album Musa which was nominated for Best Urban Music Album at the Latin Grammy Awards of 2013, it was announced in September 2013, that Queen had changed management and returned with Jorge "Goguito" Guadalupe, president and co-founder of Filtro Musik, to release her ninth studio album in February 2014. Following the birth of her first child, Queen then announced that she would embark on a U.S. tour entitled the "Viva Puerto Rico Tour".
