Shakira is set to perform at Acrisure Arena in Palm Springs on June 17, 2026, over a year and a half after canceling two previous concerts in the Coachella Valley. The pop superstar had to call off the original shows in 2024 due to undisclosed reasons, disappointing many local fans. Now, she is finally returning to the new state-of-the-art Acrisure Arena for what is expected to be a highly anticipated concert event.

Why it matters

The concert is also expected to provide an economic boost to the local tourism industry.
