'With the announcement of this new date, the Colombian singer solidifies herself as the artist with the most concerts at the iconic Estadio GNP Seguros,' promoter OCESA said in a press release.
'My beautiful Mexico! 12 shows at Estadio GNP! Thank you, thank you, and thank you again for continuing to break records with me. See you soon. I love you!!' Shakira wrote in an Instagram post, where she appears posing with a plaque of recognition from OCESA for her new milestone.
The second leg of her 2025 trek in Mexico kicks off on Aug. 11 at the Estadio Caliente in Tijuana, Baja California, and continues on Aug. 14 at the Estadio Héroes de Nacozari in Hermosillo, Sonora; Aug. 17 at the Estadio UACH in Chihuahua, and Aug. 20 at the Estadio Corona in Torreón, Coahuila.
After making history with seven consecutive sold-out shows at the Estadio GNP Seguros, the Las Mujeres Ya No Lloran World Tour will return to Mexico City to complete another series of five shows on Aug. 26, 27, 29, and 30, and Sept. 18, for a total of 12 performances. This will make Shakira the first artist to achieve such a number of concerts at the venue (formerly known as Foro Sol).
The superstar, who has been adding dates to the tour as tickets continue to sell out, will also match Grupo Firme's record of eight shows at Estadio GNP Seguros. The band is scheduled to perform their eighth show there on June 28.
The success of Shakira's monumental tour has led the 'Hips Don't Lie' singer to top Billboard's monthly Top Tours ranking for the first time, generating $32.9 million with 282,000 tickets sold in February, according to figures reported to Billboard Boxscore. The following month, she again led the chart and broke records by earning $70.6 million from 11 reported shows — more than any artist has ever generated in a single March since the ranking's launch in 2019.
Shakira's tour has left an indelible mark on Latin America, drawing more than one million fans, according to OCESA. Also this year, the Barranquilla-born star was ranked No. 1 among Billboard's Best 50 Female Latin Pop Artists of All Time.

Olivia Rodrigo's Entire Catalog Surges Yet Again
Olivia Rodrigo completed much of her Guts World Tour in 2024, but the singer-songwriter added a few dates around the world this year. She has performed shows connected to her latest worldwide trek in the United States, Brazil, Mexico, Ireland, and most recently England. The Grammy winner also headlined the latest Glastonbury Festival in late June alongside The 1975 and Neil Young, so her fans in the United Kingdom may feel especially connected to her right now – and that may explain why she's doing so well on the charts. Guts Rises on Every Chart Last week, Rodrigo's sophomore album Guts was a top 40 success on all four charts on which it appeared. This frame, it manages that distinction again and even climbs. Guts lands in similar positions on the Official Albums Streaming, Official Albums, Official Albums Sales, and Official Physical Albums charts. This frame, the pop-rock effort sits at Nos. 23, 24, and 27 on the final two tallies, respectively. Guts Reaches 100 Weeks on the Albums Chart This is a big week for Guts, as the set reaches a special milestone. It becomes Rodrigo's latest full-length to spend 100 weeks on both the main ranking of the most consumed albums in the U.K. and the tally that looks specifically at the most-streamed efforts. Guts is Rodrigo's second project to hit that prestigious mark, as her debut Sour reached the same milestone some time ago. Next frame, Guts will likely become a triple-digit charter on both the Official Albums Sales and Official Physical Albums rankings as well. Sour Manages to Win When It Comes to Streams Sour is not far behind its successor on two lists. On the Official Albums chart, Sour sits just two spots down from Guts, landing at No. 26. Impressively, Sour, the older of the two, beats Guts by a pair of spaces on the Official Albums Streaming ranking, where it settles at No. 21, compared to Guts, which can be found at No. 23. When it comes to pure purchases, however, Guts is the clear winner. The second full-length from Rodrigo is living inside the top 40 while Sour increases from No. 77 on both the Official Albums Sales and Official Physical Albums tallies to Nos. 73 and 71, respectively.
