Shakira anuncia a Maluma entre invitados a cierre de residencia en Madrid

Colombian superstar Shakira is set to conclude her Madrid residency with a special closing concert on October 12, extending her series of performances beyond the previously scheduled finale. This addition marks the 13th show at the custom-built Estadio Shakira, a venue created specifically for her world tour "Las Mujeres Ya No Lloran."

The final concert, dubbed "El último baile," coincides with Spain's Día de la Hispanidad, underscoring Latin culture as a central theme of the evening. According to reports from billboard.com, among the confirmed guest artists sharing the stage with Shakira are fellow Colombian Maluma, Beéle, and Spanish singer Dani Martín, with the possibility of more collaborators being announced in the coming days.

Maluma and Shakira’s reunion on stage carries significant weight, given their history of successful collaborations such as "Chantaje" and the more recent "Agua," which they will perform live together for the first time during this event. Beéle has also been a recent partner of Shakira’s, contributing to tracks including "Algo tú" and a renewed rendition of the iconic "Hips Don’t Lie," released to commemorate the song’s 20th anniversary.

The residency has been marked by Shakira’s demanding performance schedule, with four consecutive concerts planned from October 9 to 12. This stretch represents a notable physical and artistic commitment, reportedly initiated by the artist herself in response to strong ticket demand.

Beyond the main concert, the October 12 program will feature a cultural homage to the legacy of Federico García Lorca, the celebrated Spanish poet whose death is commemorated 90 years later. This tribute will take place at Macondo Park, spotlighting flamenco and Lorca’s influence through a lineup including artists Israel Fernández, Kiki Morente, and Antonio Carbonell, as well as designer Juana Martín.

Integral to the tribute will be a presentation centered on "Omega," the album by Enrique Morente and Lagartija Nick inspired by Lorca's work, featuring original members alongside Kiki Morente. This event underscores Shakira’s broader engagement with Spanish cultural heritage alongside her pop music career.

Shakira’s Madrid residency, which began on September 18, has already hosted notable guest appearances from artists such as Laura Pausini, Alejandro Sanz, Manuel Turizo, Dua Lipa, and the Triplets Ghetto Kids. The concert held on October 3 was streamed live via Amazon Music, becoming the most viewed female artist livestream on the platform to date.

Tickets for the closing concert were made available starting October 6 for Santander Music clients, with general sales opening the following day through Live Nation, Ticketmaster, and El Corte Inglés. The added date reflects a response to overwhelming public interest and high demand throughout the residency’s run.

As Shakira prepares to bring her Madrid stint to a close, the engagement not only highlights her enduring appeal and collaborative spirit but also integrates a meaningful cultural dimension. This fusion of pop spectacle and artistic homage positions "El último baile" as a landmark event in her ongoing world tour.
