Shakira returns to Spain with a clear roadmap and a well-defined strategy for her upcoming European tour. After weeks in the media spotlight -including her recent confession in the documentary by Alejandro Sanz’s documentary– the artist returns to the country at a brilliant professional moment, but with decisions that also reflect a personal turn.
As revealed by journalist Sandra Aladro Sandra Aladro on the program El tiempo justothe singer has chosen Madrid as the base of operations for her European tour. The Spanish capital will be the logistic center from which she will coordinate travels, rehearsals and commitments related to the tour. The choice is not accidental: it responds to practical criteria that will allow her to optimize time and avoid constant transfers between cities on the continent.
“The great news is that the tour will continue in Europe and the venue Shakira has chosen for her European tour is none other than the city of Madrid,” Aladro explained on the television program.
Shakira: A historic success in numbers
The return to Spain comes in the midst of a moment of enormous commercial success. With her Las mujeres no lloran tour, the singer of hits such as “Loba” and “Te felicito” has consolidated her position as the Latin artist with the highest grossing tour to date. According to data published by Billboardthe tour would have reached approximately 421 million euros in revenues.
These figures not only position her at the top of the Latin market, but also reinforce her ability to attract global audiences. The planning of her European leg, therefore, not only has an artistic component, but also a strategic one: to maintain the momentum of an already historic tour.
Barcelona, Spain a significant absence
One of the aspects that has attracted the most attention is the absence of Barcelona in the planned calendar. According to what was commented in El tiempo justo, the Catalan city would not be part of this new stage. “He will sing in Madrid, not in Barcelona as I understand. Barcelona is part of his past”, said Aladro.
The decision is interpreted, according to program sources, as a gesture that transcends the professional. The artist lived in Barcelona for years, a stage marked by her relationship with Gerard Pique and also by her media dispute with the Spanish Treasury. That chapter, which included legal proceedings and intense public exposure, seems to have been left behind in this new phase of her career.
Settling temporarily in Madrid represents a combination of efficiency and symbolism. On the one hand, it facilitates the organization of a large-scale tour; on the other, it consolidates a new narrative far from scenarios associated with complex moments.
In full artistic maturity and with record figures, Shakira faces Europe with determination. Madrid will be her headquarters in a stage that aims to further consolidate her status as a global figure of Latin music.
