Shakira’s free-for-all concert this past Sunday has broken the record for the biggest audience at a public concert in Mexico City, with an estimated 210,000 fans crowding the streets to see their hero perform live.
The record was previously held by a local band, Café Tacuba, who drew 170,000 fans to a concert in 2005.
The gig was Shakira’s second performance in Mexico City in the past two weeks.
Shakira fan, Yolanda Riesgo, said: “We think other big artists should play at the Zocalo so that the people who live in Mexico City have access to these types of events because a concert is very expensive and the majority of the people can’t afford it.”
The star will stay in Mexico until Wednesday, before travelling to Turkey to wrap up her Oral Fixation Tour.
The tour has featured 119 concerts around the world with an estimated attendance of 2 million people.
