There wre reggaeton concerts at Madison Square Garden, but they were *one-night stands* with multiple acts.

whyone-night stands ?

Thanks

A one-night stand for a musician is when they play a venue for just one night. Big stars would almost certainly play a venue like Madison Square Garden several nights in a row.

But that is not what I was told was the meaning of a one-night stand.

What you learned is correct, too, but not in this context. It has two meanings.
