MEXICO CITY—Colombian pop star Shakira will perform in Mexico City’s Zocalo square in a free concert on the night of March 1, the best-selling musician announced together with the city government on Friday. “Beautiful Mexico! Do you remember in 2007 when I sang for you in the Zocalo? Well, I want to tell you that this is going to happen again,” she said in a video message on social media. The musician sold out more than 12 concerts in Mexico City’s Estadio GNP during her “Las Mujeres Ya No Lloran” (Women Don’t Cry Anymore) world tour, breaking records for that venue. Some 780,000 tickets were sold, with 65,000 people attending each night in September. She is due back to the stadium at the end of February, days before the free concert in the city’s iconic central plaza. “You have given me so much and I hope I can return to you some of the love you have shown me,” Shakira said in
