The iconic Colombian superstar Shakira will take the stage in April for the Formula 1 STC Saudi Arabian Grand Prix 2026 post-race concert.
The multi-GRAMMY award-winning legend will join a star-studded lineup that already includes electronic hitmaker Kygo and global icon Pitbull on April 19, 2026 at the Main Stage at the Jeddah Corniche Circuit.
Shakira promises a high-energy performance against the stunning backdrop of Jeddah‘s Red Sea coastline. Her appearance comes as part of her record-breaking “Las Mujeres Ya No Lloran World Tour,” which has seen unprecedented demand across the globe throughout 2025 and early 2026.
Known as the “Queen of Latin Music” for her distinctive vocals and unparalleled stage presence, her music uniquely blends rock, pop, and Middle Eastern-influenced Latin rhythms – a nod to her Lebanese heritage that resonates deeply with regional audiences.
With a career spanning three decades, her digital footprint is equally staggering. Shakira remains one of the Top 10 artists of all time on YouTube, boasting over 31 billion cumulative views.
Her catalog of hits is a journey through global pop culture, including Whenever, Wherever; Hips Don’t Lie; La Tortura; Waka Waka (This Time for Africa); and Chantaje.
