As if you needed more of a reason to go to Universal Orlando this weekend, Pitbull will be performing in the second week of the “Summer Concert Series”. Somehow I think poor old Pitbull got the short end of the stick on this one, as the entire world will be next door at Islands of Adventure for the Grand Opening weekend of the Wizarding World of Harry Potter. But the concert is free, and if you’re a fan of Reggaeton this is one that you will not want to miss. The good news is that you’ll probably be able to get really close to the stage for this one!
