Shakira‘s concert in Medellín, Colombia, that was scheduled for Monday (Feb. 24) has been postponed. Event organizers said there were safety concerns for the show at Estadio Atanasio Girardot, after the roof of the stage installed by local production was damaged.

Shakira — who was forced to reschedule another Las Mujeres Ya No Lloran tour date in Lima, Peru, last weekend, when she was hospitalized with an “abdominal” condition — expressed regret regarding another unexpected concert postponement on Saturday. She shared the news with fans in a note on social media.

“My people from Medellín! It hurts me a lot not to be able to get on stage and sing for you as much as I wanted to,” she wrote in a post on X.

“My children were excited to get to know Medellín, and I was excited to meet you again and share all the surprises I had prepared for them. I’m sorry for the inconvenience, especially for those who have traveled. It’s out of my hands and those of my production team, but I’m sure we’ll soon find a new date to celebrate together,” said Shakira.

“Always grateful for the unconditional support you give me,” she added. “I love you very much and I hope to see you very soon.”

Concert promoter Páramo Presenta said Shakira’s performance would be rescheduled.

“Together with Shakira’s team, we are working on new concerts for Colombia in the second half of this year, news that will be celebrated by more than one city in the country,” read a statement on X.

Páramo Presenta explained why the decision to cancel Monday’s concert had been made, noting there was a risk to the safety of the performers, the crew and the crowd.

The update on Saturday said, “During the assembly process of the show scheduled for February 24, the roof of the stage installed by the local production suffered damage that puts at risk the safety of the artist, her staff and, most importantly, that of the audience. The promoter and the artist’s team are working together and hope to reschedule the date in the future. We understand that this decision may be annoying for the public who were anxiously awaiting the show, but the most important thing is everyone’s safety.”
