Did you know that Shakira won 2nd place at our XVI Festival de la Canción? Here, she tells the story herself!
It was on September 7th, 1988, and a few days later, she announced it alongside the renowned radio host Mauricio Rider at another music event.
She won the award by singing ‘Sin él’, one of the biggest hits by singer Marisella.
It was an honor to have you with us back then. You sang for us… and today, you sing for the world.
Welcome home! We wish you much success at your concerts in Barranquilla.
