The Guinness record was secured Dec. 11 during Shakira’s concert at V\u00e9lez Sarsfield Stadium in Buenos Aires, when cumulative tour revenue surpassed $410 million. Additional shows in Argentina and the United States pushed totals higher.
«After a 30-year career that required so much effort and faced so many challenges, living this moment is incredible», Shakira told Billboard. «I can only be grateful for the loyalty and passion of my fans, who give meaning to everything I do.»
Billboard said the tour sold out stadiums across Latin America, North America and other international markets, reinforcing Shakira’s leadership in the global Latin music industry.

In the United States and Canada, the tour earned $103.6 million from 22 shows, with an average ticket price near $150.
A second Latin America leg added $169.2 million in revenue across 36 shows, while three concerts in Hollywood, Florida contributed an additional $4.4 million.
In Billboard’s 2025 annual rankings, which include data through Sept. 30, Shakira placed fifth on the Top Tours list and second in total ticket sales. She also ranked No. 1 among Latin tours for the year.
The Las Mujeres Ya No Lloran World Tour will continue through 2026 and is scheduled to conclude April 4 in Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates, following its final Latin America dates, including five shows in El Salvador and a stop in Mexico City on Feb. 27.
With the tour, Shakira marks the most successful stretch of her career. Overall, the artist has grossed $529.7 million and sold 4.9 million tickets across 206 reported concerts, according to Billboard.
