To celebrate this inaugural initiative, there will be a live performance on the carpet with H2O, a band from Paraguay whose instruments are all made out of recycled materials.
Coca-Cola will also present a special performance by
Jason Derulo and contest winner Alyssa Bernal as a part of their MIX'ON Collaboration initiative, along with acoustic performances by Petatonix and Roméo Testa.
