Shakira’s Latam leg hits one million attendee mark

One million people have attended Shakira’s record-breaking Latin American stadium tour so far, according to promoter Ocesa.

The Colombian star has completed 18 concerts on this leg of her Las Mujeres Ya No Lloran Tour and still has 12 left to go – including four newly added Mexico dates in August and September.

They include an eighth show at the GNP Seguros Stadium in Mexico City on August 29, as well as dates at Corregidora Stadium in Querétaro (2 September), Akron Stadium in Guadalajara (6 September) and Cuauhtémoc Stadium in Puebla (12 September).

This brings her total number of Mexico shows up to 15 and includes a record-breaking seven-night run at GNP Seguros Stadium in Mexico City, which she is currently in the midst of.

With this feat, the 38-year-old surpasses shows by other international figures such as Paul McCartney, Metallica, Coldplay, and Taylor Swift.

The singer earned $32.9 million from 282,000 tickets sold in February

The Las Mujeres Ya No Lloran Tour kicked off on 11 February in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, and has so far visited six countries in Latin America. The Mexico City residency will be followed by one date in the Dominican Republic and more shows in Chile and Colombia.

Last month, Shakira was forced to postpone two shows: Estadio Atanasio Girardot in Medellín, Colombia on 24 February due to safety concerns and Estadio Nacional in Lima, Peru on 16 February after being hospitalised with an abdominal issue.

Despite that, the singer topped Billboard’s monthly Top Tours chart for the first time, earning $32.9 million from 282,000 tickets sold in February.

Earlier this month, it was revealed that Shakira’s two-night stand in the Mexican city of Guadalajara had an economic impact of 900 million pesos (€42 million).

The WME-repped act will embark on her retooled US and Canada leg, produced by Live Nation, on 13 May. Stops include Charlotte, Montreal, Toronto, Miami, Los Angeles, Las Vegas and more, before wrapping up on 30 June in San Francisco at Oracle Park.
