Singer Shakira will be the main attraction at the “Todo mundo no Rio” event, scheduled for the night of May 2 on Copacabana Beach in Rio de Janeiro, according to information released by columnist Lauro Jardim and confirmed by g1. The performance is scheduled to start at 9:45 p.m. and is part of the programming for the traditional Rio street party.
The Colombian signed a contract on Tuesday (10) with producer Bonus Track, led by Luiz Oscar Niemeyer, to perform on the city’s most famous beachfront. The show will air live on TV Globo and is sponsored by the Corona brand, with an opening act still without a defined artist.
Shakira returns to Brazil just weeks after kicking off her new world tour, which began at Estádio Nilton Santos in Rio de Janeiro. The tour promotes the album “Las mujeres ya no lloran” (in free translation, “Women no longer cry”), and her stop in the country marked her first major show in Brazil in eight years.
On social media, anticipation about Shakira’s participation in “Todo mundo no Rio” had been growing since the start of the year, with fans and music-specialized portals raising the possibility of her presence. At one point, the show was even removed from the Songkick website, fueling speculation before the official confirmation.
