NEW YORK — Shakira’s concerts in New York City have been postponed due to rising demand for tickets, prompting her tour organizers to seek larger venues.
Shakira was scheduled to perform at the Barclays Center in Brooklyn on December 5 and 6, part of her Las Mujeres Ya No Lloran World Tour, but the arena confirmed on Saturday that the shows have been canceled.
The Colombian singer and songwriter told fans in an Instagram story that her upcoming US concerts were postponed.
“As Live Nation previously communicated, demand for tickets and more shows has reached the point that our tour now requires stadiums in the US and more dates so I can see as many of you as possible,” Shakira’s Instagram Story said.

Barclays Center said tickets for the Shakira concerts will be automatically refunded and told ticket holders to contact their point of sale for more information.
No new concert dates or locations have been announced so far.
“The production of my show is also now so much bigger and different than anything I’ve done before. As a result, we’re elevating my North American run from arenas to stadiums and the dates are being pushed back to May 2025, right after my show.” Latin American tour. Get ready – cities and dates will be announced on Monday!” Shakira’s Instagram story continued.
Shakira performed a pop-up concert in Times Square, which drew a huge crowdearlier this year.
