Last Friday, May 1st, the Altos de Chavón Amphitheater at Casa de Campo Resort & Villas welcomed the American band Maroon 5, as part of their return to the Dominican Republic after a 16-year absence from performing in the country. The show, which began at 9:30 PM, was attended by thousands of people, filling the venue to its total capacity.

The presentation, produced by Saymon Díaz and SD Concerts, brought together a diverse audience composed of Casa de Campo residents, Dominicans, and international visitors from the United States, European countries, South America, and Asia. For approximately two hours, the band performed a repertoire of more than 20 songs that spanned the main hits of their career, including «Harder to Breathe,» «This Love,» «Animals,» «One More Night,» «Sunday Morning,» «Memories,» «She Will Be Loved,» «Maps,» «Girls Like You,» «Moves Like Jagger,» «Payphone,» and «Sugar,» among others.

Adam Levine, wearing his classic white t-shirt that he would later throw to the crowd, moved with absolute stage control. At several points, he approached the edge to interact genuinely, measuring the intensity of a bond that needed no introduction. «It feels so good to be back in this beautiful place after so long,» he expressed in English, receiving a standing ovation that confirmed the mutual feeling. The stage production was characterized by a sober lighting and screen design, with an emphasis on sound quality and musical execution.

The event marked Maroon 5's second performance in the Dominican Republic, following their concert at the Olympic Stadium in 2010, and two canceled performances in 2017 and 2022 due to weather and logistical conditions.

Altos de Chavón reaffirmed its place as the preferred stage for major international shows in the east of the country. More than a concert, for attendees the night was a real-time shared experience, where Maroon 5's hit-making machine worked perfectly, leaving a new page of its musical history etched into the ancient stones of the amphitheater.
