Shakira has decided that her return to Spain will not be just another concert, but an unprecedented event: the artist has announced that a special venue will be built in Madrid, called the “Shakira Stadium,” designed solely to host the final concerts of her Las mujeres ya no lloran tour in our country. It will not be a conventional stadium, but a structure custom-built for her show, with an “otherworldly” production that, as the singer herself has revealed, “has never been seen before in Spain” and will allow her to perform in the capital “for more than two days,” in a format akin to a residency.
Shakira dropped the bombshell in an interview with Henar Álvarez for the program *Al cielo con ella* on La 2, in a preview that RTVE released ahead of the full broadcast. In that clip, the Colombian singer explains that she is saving Spain “for the end” of the tour and that here she is going to “pull out all the stops in every way.”
The stadium will be located in Madrid and will serve as the venue for a series of consecutive concerts, something closer to the Las Vegas residencies or Bad Bunny’s concert marathon in Puerto Rico than to a typical one-off stadium date.
What exactly is the “Shakira Stadium”?
Although there are still no public plans or a specific location, everything points to a temporary or semi-permanent venue, designed as a “tailor-made suit” for the tour’s XXL stage design.
The comparison being made in music circles is to major European pop-up projects, such as the stadium built for Adele’s residency in Munich, but with a Colombian and Madrid twist: a venue conceived for a single tour, with a clear expiration date and designed to become a pilgrimage site for fans for a few weeks. The “Shakira Stadium” would not only draw the bulk of the Spanish audience but also thousands of fans from other European countries who would view Madrid as the essential stop on the tour’s final leg.
Madrid, the epicenter of the tour finale
The fact that the venue is being built in Madrid is no coincidence, as rumors have been circulating for months that the European leg of the Las mujeres ya no lloran World Tour would have the capital as its only stop in Spain, with several dates concentrated in the city.
For now, there are no confirmed dates or schedule. Industry sources predict that the announcement will come as part of the European leg of the Las mujeres ya no lloran World Tour, which the artist has already indicated will take up a significant portion of 2026.
