Shakira is set to return to Egypt for a landmark concert at the Great Pyramids of Giza on 28th November, marking her first performance in the country in almost two decades. The show is presented by Venture Lifestyle, the entertainment group behind previous MENA region spectaculars featuring J Lo, John Legend and Katy Perry.
Venture Lifestyle has been shaping the region’s live music landscape since 2018, bringing major international names including John Legend, Demi Lovato and Katy Perry to the Middle East, alongside Formula 1 events and destination-driven showcases that blend music, heritage and storytelling. Shakira’s Pyramids return carries particular weight given her 2007 performance at the same site, still regarded as one of Egypt’s most memorable international concerts and a moment that fused music, history and culture on a global stage.
The Colombian superstar will take to the stage against the backdrop of the only surviving wonder of the ancient world, a setting that has increasingly drawn major international artists looking to stage shows at the meeting point of contemporary culture and thousands of years of history. Speaking ahead of the announcement, Shakira said “I’m very happy to be performing in Egypt, at the Pyramids of Giza. I love you all.”
Tickets and further details for the 28th November show are available now, with fans encouraged to check official channels for on-sale information.
Shakira’s career spans more than three decades and has yielded over 95 million records sold worldwide, alongside multiple Grammy and Latin Grammy Awards. Her catalogue has consistently crossed language and cultural borders, and her recent Las Mujeres Ya No Lloran era has further cemented her status as one of pop’s most enduring and influential figures while marking a fresh chapter in her artistic evolution.
The concert continues a growing trend of the Pyramids hosting internationally significant live events, positioning the November show as another moment where one of pop’s most recognisable stars performs among some of humanity’s most enduring landmarks.
