San Antonio, Texas – Shakira’s concert scheduled for Friday night at the Alamodome has been postponed due to structural issues with the stage, as confirmed by Live Nation Entertainment. The postponement comes after venue representatives informed concertgoers that they would not be allowed inside the stadium due to ongoing unspecified issues.
Ticket holders can rest assured that all previously purchased tickets for the San Antonio concert will be honored for a new date once it is announced. More detailed information is expected to be sent directly to ticketholders via email.
Prior to the postponement, fans reported being in line for over an hour in high temperatures, with some experiencing heat-related illnesses. Complaints flooded social media about the long wait times and the conditions outside the stadium. The Alamodome had previously charged $60 for parking, leading to further frustrations concerning the timing of the postponement announcement.
This incident marks the third last-minute postponement on Shakira’s current tour, which has already seen cancellations in Washington, D.C., and Boston due to similar structural issues. The artist recently transitioned her concert venues from the Frost Bank Center to larger stadiums in response to unprecedented fan demand.
Shakira stated on social media that the stage’s structural damage stemmed from infrastructure provided by a third-party company. In an effort to ensure the safety of the concert, engineers were brought in to reassess the stage setup.
Due to the abrupt nature of the postponement, many fans expressed disappointment. Some had traveled long distances to attend the concert, and the unexpected change in plans left them disheartened. The cancellation of the San Antonio concert also follows a series of recent concert postponements in the region.
Additionally, Shakira has rescheduled her Sunday concert in Houston to the following Tuesday, also citing stage-related issues. A reimbursement process is set in place for anyone who had paid for parking at the Alamodome through ParkHub, with automatic refunds promised to those affected.
As of now, no new date has been announced for the rescheduled concert in San Antonio. Fans eagerly await further updates regarding the new schedule and the resolution of the stage issues.
