Colombian superstar Shakira will give fans around the world access to her Madrid residency with a global livestream of her October 3 concert.
The show, titled Amazon Music Presents Shakira Live From Madrid, will be streamed from the Iberdrola Music venue as part of her ongoing European residency, which began on September 18 and ends on October 11.
The livestream will begin at 8:45 p.m. Central European Summer Time in Spain and will be available through the Amazon Music app, Prime Video, the Amazon Music app on Fire TV and the Amazon Music channel on Twitch.
Fans will not need a subscription to watch the performance.
Shakira said the Las Mujeres Ya No Lloran World Tour had exceeded her expectations and expressed excitement about sharing the Madrid show with audiences worldwide.
“Las Mujeres Ya No Lloran World Tour has become so much more than I could have ever imagined, and I am so proud of it,” she said.
“I’m thrilled to know I can take it even further by sharing this special night with fans around the world, alongside Amazon Music.”
The livestream will form part of Amazon Music’s 2026 edition of La Música Nos Conecta (Music Connects Us), which celebrates the artists, sounds and cultural movements shaping Latin music.
This year’s programme, titled Las Mujeres Que Impulsan la Música Latina (Women Who Drive Latin Music), focuses on women who have influenced the genre and emerging artists transforming its future.
Shakira’s Madrid residency marks her return to Spanish stages after eight years and serves as the closing chapter of her Las Mujeres Ya No Lloran World Tour.
The 12-show residency is part of ES LATINA, a cultural programme combining Latin music, food, art and entertainment at Macondo Park, a temporary venue created for the event that also features the Shakira Stadium.
The partnership between Shakira and Amazon Music will also support her Pies Descalzos Foundation through a collaboration with Amazon Web Services and Laboratoria.
The initiative will provide free artificial intelligence and cloud computing training, beginning in Colombia, with the goal of reaching one million women across Latin America by 2028.
The collaboration will also include a new remix of Shakira’s song “Dai Dai” produced by RVSSIAN, a special vinyl release of her album Laundry Service to mark its 25th anniversary, and El Mixtape, a playlist curated by the singer featuring artists who have influenced her career. m (Arise News)
