Shakira Drops Major Tour Update, Confirms Chicago Kickoff and San Francisco Finale
<p class="" data-start="86" data-end="289">The queen of Latin pop is turning up the heat again. Shakira has just confirmed new stops for her already buzzing &#8220;Las Mujeres Ya No Lloran&#8221; World Tour — and her fans in North America are in for a treat.</p>
<p class="" data-start="291" data-end="603">On April 23, the global sensation took to Instagram to break the news. She&#8217;s heading stateside, with the first U.S. appearance locked in for Chicago’s Grant Park this May. From there, it’s a coast-to-coast celebration of her latest album, with the North American leg wrapping in San Francisco by the end of June.</p>
<h2 class="" data-start="605" data-end="652">Shakira Sets the Stage for a Summer Takeover</h2>
<p class="" data-start="654" data-end="891">She’s not easing in — she’s making a statement. One of her first big performances on U.S. soil will be at the Sueños music festival in Chicago. Mark your calendars: May 25, Saturday night. The venue? Grant Park. The vibe? Off the charts.</p>
<p class="" data-start="893" data-end="1038">This isn’t just another tour stop. It’s the kind of announcement that floods social feeds, sparks group chats, and sends fans racing for tickets.</p>
<p class="" data-start="1040" data-end="1151">“North America see you soon! #LMYNLWorldTour,” Shakira wrote, keeping it simple, sharp, and seriously exciting.</p>
<p class="" data-start="1153" data-end="1289">And she means business. The last time she hit the stage like this, she left Super Bowl fans speechless. Expect no less this time around.</p>
<p data-start="1153" data-end="1289"><a href="https://www.theibulletin.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/04/shakira-grant-park-suenos-music-festival-performance.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-57323" src="https://www.theibulletin.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/04/shakira-grant-park-suenos-music-festival-performance.jpg" alt="shakira grant park sueños music festival performance" width="1091" height="833" /></a></p>
<h2 class="" data-start="1291" data-end="1343">From Sueños to San Francisco: Tour Dates Revealed</h2>
<p class="" data-start="1345" data-end="1487">It’s not every day an artist of Shakira’s caliber updates her tour midstream. But that’s what she just did — straight from her Instagram grid.</p>
<p class="" data-start="1489" data-end="1631">In a move fans have been eagerly waiting for, the Colombian icon laid out a fresh stretch of dates for the North American portion of her tour.</p>
<p class="" data-start="1633" data-end="1749">• May 25 – Chicago, Grant Park (Sueños Festival)<br data-start="1685" data-end="1688" />• June 30 – San Francisco (Tour finale for North America)</p>
<p class="" data-start="1751" data-end="1920">That’s a five-week stretch packed with performances. Though the full list of cities hasn’t been made public just yet, these two bookends give fans plenty to plan around.</p>
<p class="" data-start="1922" data-end="2042">Just imagine: open-air summer shows, hips that still don’t lie, and a setlist packed with new hits and timeless anthems.</p>
<h2 class="" data-start="2044" data-end="2090">Fans React: “She’s Giving Us What We Want!”</h2>
<p class="" data-start="2092" data-end="2223">There’s no sugarcoating it — the fans are <em data-start="2134" data-end="2144">thrilled</em>. Comment sections across social media lit up the second she posted the update.</p>
<p class="" data-start="2225" data-end="2367">One user wrote, “Chicago AND San Francisco?? Shakira really loves us!” Another said, “I’ve been waiting for this day since the album dropped.”</p>
<p class="" data-start="2369" data-end="2557">Some even pointed out that her last major tour, El Dorado World Tour, didn’t include this kind of personal rollout. This time around, it feels more intimate. More connected. More… Shakira.</p>
<p class="" data-start="2559" data-end="2661">That’s part of what’s kept her at the top for over two decades — she doesn’t just perform. She shares.</p>
<h2 class="" data-start="2663" data-end="2710">A Look Back at the Album That Sparked It All</h2>
<p class="" data-start="2712" data-end="2980">“Las Mujeres Ya No Lloran” isn’t just a catchy title — it’s a cultural moment. Her twelfth studio album has already broken streaming records in several countries, with standout tracks like “Puntería” and “Acróstico” earning praise from critics and longtime fans alike.</p>
<p class="" data-start="2982" data-end="3189">Released just months before the tour kicked off on February 11, the album plays with vulnerability, power, and a pinch of revenge. Sound familiar? Yeah, it&#8217;s got <em data-start="3144" data-end="3150">that</em> Shakira flavor — bittersweet and bold.</p>
<p class="" data-start="3191" data-end="3244">Here’s a quick peek at how the album’s been received:</p>

<p class="" data-start="3562" data-end="3659">It’s no surprise the tour’s drawing massive attention. The album itself was a headline generator.</p>
<h2 class="" data-start="3661" data-end="3713">Paying Tribute: The ‘Waka Waka’ Designer Shoutout</h2>
<p class="" data-start="3715" data-end="3856">In between tour updates and city confirmations, Shakira also used her platform to spotlight another artist — fashion designer Jawara Alleyne.</p>
<p class="" data-start="3858" data-end="4014">The London-based creative was behind the dazzling outfit Shakira wore in her iconic 2010 “Waka Waka” performance, and earlier this week, he got his flowers.</p>
<p class="" data-start="4016" data-end="4211">She posted a gallery in his honor, celebrating his contribution to a look that’s etched into pop culture forever. No frills, no big promo. Just a classy, heartfelt nod from one artist to another.</p>
<p class="" data-start="4213" data-end="4341">It might seem like a small detail, but for fans who’ve followed Shakira since the early 2000s, these kinds of gestures hit deep.</p>
<h2 class="" data-start="4343" data-end="4402">Final Stop? Not Quite — World Tour Runs Through November</h2>
<p class="" data-start="4404" data-end="4524">Even though she’s wrapping the North American leg on June 30 in San Francisco, don’t confuse that with the grand finale.</p>
<p class="" data-start="4526" data-end="4685">The “Las Mujeres Ya No Lloran” World Tour won’t end until November 16, 2025. That means fans in other parts of the globe still have time to catch her live.</p>
<p class="" data-start="4687" data-end="4811">She’s already performed in multiple cities since February. Now, it’s North America’s turn. After that? The rhythm continues.</p>
<p class="" data-start="4813" data-end="4941">Whether she’s playing massive festival crowds or stadiums filled to the brim, one thing’s for sure — Shakira isn’t slowing down.</p>
