Boston music fans are facing an unexpected change of plans.
Shakira‘s concert at Fenway Park on May 29 was suddenly canceled for undisclosed reasons just hours before the singer was set to go on stage.
And the “Whenever, Wherever” singer—who was performing at the stadium as part of her The Las Mujeres Ya No Lloran tour and as the opener for the 2025 Fenway Concert Series—wasn’t the only artist to opt out of singing live at the Boston venue. Jason Aldean and Brooks & Dunn‘s concert scheduled for the following day was canceled as well.
