Storm Cuts Short Shakira’s First Córdoba Show With Second Night Still On

Organizers cite lightning risk as the reason for the early end, with a complaints email now available for attendees.

Overview

  • The Sunday concert at Estadio Mario Alberto Kempes was halted roughly 20–30 minutes before the planned finish after lightning intensified and an evacuation was ordered.
  • Producers stressed the call was a safety measure due to electrical activity rather than rain, noting that continuing would have put the crowd at risk.
  • A dedicated channel for claims was opened at consultas@universojimenez.com to address complaints from attendees affected by the truncated show.
  • Monday’s show is confirmed to proceed at 21:00 with doors at 18:00 under Fénix Entertainment, offering fans the full program after the curtailed first night.
  • Provincial officials project the two dates will draw about 120,000 people and generate roughly USD 55 million, with hotel occupancy in Córdoba at or near full capacity.
