In the European leg, Madrid, Amsterdam, Tel Aviv,[4] London and Paris concerts were reported sold out.

In December 2019, he announced his concerts in his native Puerto Rico with the name Con Calma Pal Choli. This was his first tour as a headliner in the Coliseo de Puerto Rico since the 2007 Big Boss World Tour. Owing the high demand, it ends with a record-breaking twelve sold-out shows and more than 170,000 tickets sold.[5][6][7] and with US$6 million gross,[8] and $14 million in ticket sales.[9] All the shows were sold out in just hours.[10] Because of this, Daddy Yankee broke the record for the most consecutive shows in the arena, previously hold by Wisin & Yandel with nine.
