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 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.[1] Performances in Boston and Tampa have also been confirmed as well. A performance in Puerto Rico was not been planned,[2] 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.[3]
