The Peace Without Borders benefit concert is held in Plaza de la Revolución, Havana, Cuba, Caribbean. Over one million people turn up to see artists including Juanes (Colombia), Amaury Pérez (Cuba), Danny Rivera (Puerto Rico), Juan Fernando Velasco (Ecuador), Jovanotti (Italy), Luis Eduardo Auté (Spain), Miguel Bosé (Spain), Olga Tañón (Puerto Rico), Orishas (Cuba), Silvio Rodríguez (Cuba), Los Van Van (Cuba), Carlos Varela (Cuba), Víctor Manuel (Spain), CuCu Diamantes y Yerba Buena (Venezuela / Cuba) and X Alfonso (Cuba). The stated aim of the event is to help bring peace and unity to the region, but some critics perceive it as servicing the PR aims of Fidel Castro's government.
