Puerto Rican superstar has officially landed Down Under, and Australians are already swooning over his laidback style.
The rapper and singer, 31, who is set to perform two shows at Engie Stadium on Saturday and Sunday, was spotted strolling through Airport on Tuesday in a casually cool ensemble.
He paired a black hoodie with crisp grey tracksuit pants - but it was his choice of thongs (known stateside as flip-flops) as footwear that really caught the eye, instantly endearing him to fans for embracing Australia's famously relaxed fashion vibe.
The I Like It hitmaker was also spotted carrying a chequered carry bag slung casually over one shoulder, while huge headphones sat over his ears.
Smiling and waving at fans as he made his way through the arrivals lounge, Bad Bunny - who was - looked genuinely happy and relaxed, soaking in the Sydney atmosphere.
His easy-going energy and warm interactions only added to the excitement building ahead of his two sold-out Sydney shows this weekend.

But it wasn't just his outfit turning heads, as flight trackers had sparked excitement the day before when a Qantas Airbus A380 was spotted making a non-stop journey from Sydney to São Paulo, Brazil.
The chatter online suggested the aircraft might be empty, fuelling speculation it was a test flight for direct Australia-Brazil routes.
It turns out the superjumbo wasn't empty at all.

Sources now confirm it was chartered by Bad Bunny for the Australian dates of his 2026 world tour, Debí Tirar Más Fotos (I Should Have Taken More Photos).
The Qantas A380 departed Sydney just after 10pm on Monday and touched down in São Paulo nearly 15 hours later.
It marked the first time in a decade that Qantas has flown to Brazil – its last visits being chartered flights for the 2016 Rio Olympics.
For the return trip, the plane stopped in Auckland for refuelling before continuing to Sydney, with an arrival around 12:50pm local time on Tuesday.
This particular aircraft, registered VH-OQA and named Nancy Bird-Walton after the pioneering Australian aviatrix, is Qantas' first and oldest superjumbo, and recently returned to service in April 2024 after years in pandemic storage.
While A380s are built for passengers rather than cargo, the jet will likely carry Bad Bunny's extensive entourage and tour equipment.
