The Colombian-Spanish singer Shakira is coming to Barcelona this year! Known for her belly dance moves and sensual songs, Shakira will have her concert on November 24th at the Palau Sant Jordi in Barcelona. So don't miss the Shakira concert in Barcelona 2010!

 Shakira was already a successful singer in Latin America before becoming popular around 2001 in other parts of the world, too. Her most famous songs are « Whenever, Wherever », « La Tortura » with Alejandro Sanz, "Hips Don't Lie" and "She Wolf". More recently she provided the official song for the 2010 FIFA World Cup, called "Waka Waka". Her newest album should be released around October 19th, so you should take a few minutes and listen to it...

Shakira's complete name is Shakira Isabel Mebarak Ripoll, and she has Lebanese, Italian and Spanish - or more specific - Catalan origins (her name Ripoll is actually a city of the Girona Province in Catalunya). During your next holiday in Girona you should remember that!

But maybe is this the reason Shakira chose Catalunya's most famous holiday destination city, Barcelona, as location for her new video shoot? Yes, the video for the new Shakira single Loca was filmed in Barcelona in August! But of course Barcelona is one of the most popular locations for anything, with its famous parks, buildings, beaches, culture and many other sights. So you can start planning your Barelona holidays already!

If you stay in your Barcelona holiday rental, for example a Barcelona hotel or a Barcelona apartment, you can walk through the city and discover the places Shakira used for her new single Loca. And after that, or before, you can watch her incredible performance during the Shakira Concert in Barcelona 2010!

To best get to the location for the Shakira concert 2010 in Barcelona, the Palau Sant Jordi, you could use the green L3 or purple L2 metro line and step out at Poble Sec or Parallel. From there, you can walk slowly towards the Parc del Montjuic, where the Palau is located. The Palau Sant Jordi is very often host to concerts (e.g. the Sting Concert 2010, Lady Gaga Concert 2010), so you can be sure to spend a wonderful time there.

You can already purchase the tickets for the Shakira Concert in Barcelona through the official Shakira site, so book early enough! It is also wise to book a nice Barcelona apartment or hotel in advance, so you can choose the most suitable accommodation for you. Or maybe you want to explore Shakira's Catalan origins in a Girona hotel?
