Fans had expressed frustration as they awaited the concert in high temperatures.

San Antonio – Shakira’s concert at the Alamodome has been rescheduled for Tuesday, July 5, at 7:30 p.m. The original concert was set to take place on June 13 but was postponed due to structural issues with the stage, which the venue announced less than 40 minutes before the show was supposed to start.
Officials from the Alamodome attributed the postponement to problems with a truss provided by a third-party company responsible for the stage support. A photo released by Shakira’s team appeared to show a broken metal support beam, raising safety concerns that forced the delay.
Fans who purchased tickets for the June 13 concert can use them for the rescheduled event. The City of San Antonio has confirmed that ticket holders will not need to make any changes to their existing tickets. In addition, those who had paid for parking at the Alamodome, which was priced at $60, will receive reimbursements in the coming days if payment was made with a credit card.
The postponement caused significant frustration among fans, many of whom had been waiting outside in the heat long after the scheduled opening time of 5:30 p.m. After receiving word from Shakira’s team, Alamodome staff promptly began notifying fans about the cancellation.
This concert is part of Shakira’s “Las Mujeres Ya No Lloran Tour,” which has seen multiple cancellations and adjustments across the U.S. In addition to the San Antonio concert, Shakira’s performance in Houston will also follow a recent rescheduling due to venue capacity changes driven by high demand from fans.
Security and logistical protocols at large events can be complex, and Shakira’s team has faced challenges similar to those that led to the San Antonio postponement. Following comparable issues before a May 29 concert in Boston, Shakira hired a new team of engineers to enhance safety measures for the ongoing tour.
Shakira has publicly expressed her regret and heartbreak over being unable to perform, emphasizing the profound impact such delays have on both her and her fans. The San Antonio concert aims to bring her fans together once more, and preparations are ongoing to ensure a smooth event in July.
The upcoming concert is anticipated to be an exciting event as it will be among the first performances following the resolution of the structural issues. Fans are advised to stay informed about any further announcements from event organizers and are encouraged to hold onto their original tickets for a seamless experience on the new concert date.
The concert at the Alamodome is a part of a broader series of performances that Shakira has scheduled across the U.S. With numerous loyal fans eagerly awaiting, the July 5 concert is expected to be a highlight of the summer concert season in San Antonio.
