Renowned Colombian pop sensation Shakira is set to return to India for live performances this April, delighting fans across two major cities. As part of the third edition of the Feeding India Concert 2026, Shakira will perform in Mumbai on 10 April and in Delhi on 15 April. The event is jointly organised by the charity Feeding India and food-tech platform District by Zomato, and will feature both international and Indian artists.
Organisers emphasise that the concert is not solely for entertainment but also aims to raise awareness about hunger and malnutrition among children in India. Shakira’s performances are scheduled at the Mahalaxmi Racecourse in Mumbai and the Jawaharlal Nehru Stadium in Delhi.
| Date | City | Venue | Key Highlights |
|---|---|---|---|
| 10 April 2026 | Mumbai | Mahalaxmi Racecourse | International and Indian artists performing alongside Shakira |
| 15 April 2026 | Delhi | Jawaharlal Nehru Stadium | Focus on child nutrition awareness and global solidarity |
In a statement, Shakira said,
“Performing in India has always been incredibly special for me. I am thrilled to reconnect with my fans in Mumbai and Delhi. The Feeding India Concert is not just about music; it is a platform to ensure every child receives the nutrition they need to grow and thrive.”
Beyond her music career, Shakira actively contributes to child welfare and education through her Barefoot Foundation, an initiative aligned with the concert’s goal of building a hunger- and malnutrition-free society.
The Feeding India Concert is a community-driven initiative designed to accelerate progress towards the United Nations Sustainable Development Goal of Zero Hunger by 2030. By combining entertainment with social awareness, the organisers hope to amplify the message of nutrition equity across India.
Shakira has a long history of performing in India, first appearing nearly two decades ago. Her most recent concert in the country was in 2007 as part of her Oral Fixation Tour, where she performed to a packed audience in Mumbai. Music critics note that her return promises to be a landmark event, combining world-class performances with a strong social message.
With her unique blend of global pop appeal and humanitarian advocacy, Shakira’s 2026 Indian tour is expected to draw significant attention from both fans and media, reinforcing the power of music to inspire social change.
