Fans of the renowned U.S. rock band Interpol will be pleased to attend its live concert in Costa Rica, which is part of the band's "The Other Side of Make Believe" global tour.

The event promises a memorable evening with the band's biggest singles such as "PDA," "Obstacle 1," and "Say Hello to the Angels," among others.

The band's members, Paul Banks (lead vocals, rhythm guitar), Daniel Kessler (lead guitar, backing vocals), and Samuel Fogarino (drums and percussion), are sure to please the audience.

The concert will be held on Friday, May 24, at the Parque Viva Amphitheater in Guácima Canton, Alajuela Province.

For those hoping to secure a seat at the concert, tickets, which range in price from $55 to $100, are now available on the Etickets website.

Interpol was founded in Manhattan, New York, in 1997. It is a band linked with the New York indie music scene, as well as one of many bands that arose during the 2000s post-punk resurgence.

Turn On the Bright Lights (2002), Interpol's debut album received critical praise and ranked No. 10 on New Musical Express' selection of the best albums of the year.

The band's latest and seventh studio album, "The Other Side of Make-Believe," was released in July 2022.

Interpol is one of several international bands performing in Costa Rica. Recently, Julian Marley, the British-Jamaican reggae artist, songwriter, producer, and son of reggae music idol Bob Marley, performed with the iconic band The Wailers at the Pedregal Events Center in Heredia.

That concert was part of the Mae Reggae Fest, which also featured performances by 20 reggae music groups like Chase, Mikayla Taylor, Koino, and Voodo among many others.
