P.A.R.C.E. is the fifth studio album by Colombian recording artist Juanes. It was released on December 7, 2010, through Universal Music Latino. The album's lead single "Yerbatero" was released on June 10, 2010 as a digital download. "Y No Regresas" was released as the second single on October 12, 2010. "Regalito" was released as the third single on January 11, 2011.

On February 17, 2011, Juanes performed live the third single, Regalito, from the album at the annual Latin awards show, Premios Lo Nuestro. The album has sold 1 million copies worldwide and was certified gold in Spain and platinum in the United States.

The phrase PARCE is an abbreviation of "parcero," a typical expression in Colombian Spanish meaning "friend" in Antioquia Colombia, where Juanes is from. In May, 2010 Juanes announced he was working in the studio with album producer Stephen Lipson to record a new album in London. The album's first single was "Yerbatero". Juanes has said that the album contains messages of love, peace and freedom as well a very personal statement in the song "La Razón", which speaks of the joy of the reunion with his wife after their separation, the birth of their son and "The wonder that is home." The album was released in two editions. The Standard edition includes 10 tracks, and the Deluxe edition includes 12 tracks, plus 2 videos, 2 behind-the-scenes looks and a documentary of P.A.R.C.E.

Juanes' last two albums, Mi Sangre and La vida... es un ratico, charted within the Top 40 of the album chart as well as the peak position of the Billboard Top Latin Albums. P.A.R.C.E peaked at #2 of the Billboard Latin Albums Chart behind fellow Colombian singer Shakira's album Sale el Sol, which was in its eighth week of charting in the #1 position. It also arrived at #2 on the Billboard Latin Pop Albums, again behind Shakira. The album also debuted on the Billboard 200 at #165, a disappointment compared to the #13 debut and peak position of La Vida...Es un Ratico.
