Shakira shows inject M$900m into Guadalajara

Shakira’s two-night stand in the Mexican city of Guadalajara had an economic impact of 900 million pesos (€42 million), according to preliminary data.

The Colombian singer-songwriter performed to 90,000 people across the 16 and 17 March shows at Akron Stadium, on her Las Mujeres Ya No Lloran tour.

Data shows that Guadalajara surpassed 50% hotel occupancy, with more than 37,000 tourists travelling from other states to attend one of Shakira’s two shows, promoted by Ocesa.

In three days, an economic impact of approximately 900 million pesos was recorded, benefiting hotels, restaurants, transportation, and other sectors.

The Las Mujeres Ya No Lloran tour continues tonight at Estadio GNP Seguros in Mexico City, where Shakira will make history

The Las Mujeres Ya No Lloran tour continues tonight at Estadio GNP Seguros in Mexico City, where Shakira will make history by becoming the first artist to have seven consecutive shows at the venue.

The Mexican residency (taking place from 21–30 March) will be followed by one show in the Dominican Republic, three in Chile and two in her native Colombia.

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

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.
