Shakira Smashes Records: One Million Tickets Sold in Mexico Tour

Shakira, the globally acclaimed music icon, has once again etched her name in history, achieving an extraordinary milestone with her “Las Mujeres Ya No Lloran” World Tour. The superstar has successfully sold an astounding one million tickets in Mexico alone, marking an unprecedented achievement that solidifies her powerful impact on the Latin American music scene. This monumental success underscores the immense demand for live performances by the Colombian sensation, proving her unparalleled ability to draw massive crowds.

According to OCESA, the prominent promoter of the tour, this figure is not merely a number but a profound statement of impact, echoing the historic significance of her initial twelve sold-out dates at Estadio GNP Seguros in Mexico City. The sheer scale of selling a million tickets in a country of 129 million inhabitants highlights the unique connection Shakira shares with her Mexican fanbase, establishing a new benchmark for live entertainment events in the region.

This remarkable figure is a cumulative result of 26 concerts meticulously planned and executed across Mexico, divided into two distinct phases. The strategic scheduling allowed for extensive reach, ensuring that fans across the nation had the opportunity to witness the spectacle of the “Las Mujeres Ya No Lloran” World Tour, further cementing Shakira’s status as a dominant force in music tour demographics.

The first phase saw Shakira making history in March with an astounding seven consecutive sold-out shows at the Estadio GNP Seguros. This initial run alone set a precedent, showcasing the insatiable appetite for her performances and foreshadowing the even greater success that was to come. Her ability to fill such a massive venue repeatedly speaks volumes about her enduring appeal and stage presence.

Following this initial triumph, the “Las Mujeres Ya No Lloran” World Tour is set to return to the Mexican capital for an additional series of five Mexico concerts. These highly anticipated dates, scheduled for August 26, 27, 29, and 30, and a final show on September 18, will bring her total to an unprecedented twelve performances at the venue, formerly known as Foro Sol. This makes Shakira the first artist ever to achieve such a remarkable number of dates at this major Mexican venue.

The continuous addition of dates, driven by overwhelming ticket demand, suggests that Shakira is on track to surpass even the most formidable record sales previously set at Estadio GNP Seguros. Notably, she is soon expected to eclipse Grupo Firme’s nine-show record, which currently stands as the highest number of performances held there by any group. This competitive edge further illustrates her unparalleled drawing power in the market.

The monumental success of this stadium tour has propelled the “Hips Don’t Lie” pop star to the pinnacle of touring artists, with her tour already grossing an impressive $130 million as of June. Beyond the financial figures, the “Las Mujeres Ya No Lloran” World Tour has left an indelible mark on Latin America, reportedly bringing together more than one million spectators, according to OCESA. This tour is not just a series of concerts; it’s a cultural phenomenon that showcases the vibrant spirit of Latin music and its global reach.
