Grammy Award winner and Rock and Roll Hall of Famer Carlos Santana brings his “Global Consciousness Tour” to Hard Rock Event Center at Seminole Hard Rock Hotel & Casino in Hollywood, Fla. on Friday, April 19, at 8 p.m. Tickets go on sale Friday, Nov. 16, at 10 a.m. Santana fan club members can purchase tickets beginning Tuesday, Nov. 13 at 10 a.m. American Express cardholders can purchase tickets beginning Wednesday, Nov. 14 at 10 a.m. Fans can access presale tickets beginning Thursday, Nov. 15, at 10 a.m. through Seminole Hard Rock Hollywood’s Facebook and Twitter pages.

Delivered with a level of passion and soul equal to the legendary sonic charge of his guitar, the sound of Santana is one of the world’s best-known musical signatures. For more than four decades—from Santana’s earliest days as a groundbreaking Afro-Latin-blues-rock fusion outfit in San Francisco—Santana has been the visionary force behind artistry that transcends musical genres and generational, cultural and geographical boundaries. The ten-time GRAMMY-Award, three-time Latin GRAMMY-Award-winning rock icon and Rock and Roll Hall of Famer Santana will celebrate the 20th anniversary of his groundbreaking album “Supernatural” and the 50th anniversary of his Woodstock performance with his energy-infused “Global Consciousness Tour.”

For more than 50 years, Santana has sold more than 100 million records and reached more than 100 million fans at concerts worldwide. To date, Santana has won ten Grammy Awards and three Latin Grammy Awards, including a record-tying nine Grammys for a single project for 1999’s “Supernatural” (including Album of the Year and Record of the Year for “Smooth”). He has also received the Billboard Century Award (1996), was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame (1998), received the Billboard Latin Music Awards’ Lifetime Achievement Award (2009), and was the recipient of the Kennedy Center Honors Award (2013).

Among many other honors, Santana has been cited by Rolling Stone as No. 15 on their list of the 100 Greatest Guitarists of All Time. With the 2014 release of “Corazón,” Santana surpassed the Rolling Stones and is one of only two music acts in Billboard history to score at least one Top Ten album for six consecutive decades from the 1960s and beyond.

In the fall of 2014, Santana released his memoir “The Universal Tone: Bringing My Story to Light.” In 2017, Santana and his wife Cindy Blackman Santana joined forces with The Isley Brothers (Ronald and Ernie) to release “Power of Peace,” an album celebrating the timeless sounds of funk, soul, blues, rock, jazz, and pop. Santana is currently headlining a multi-year residency at House of Blues at Mandalay Bay Resort and Casino in Las Vegas.
