Latin music icon Gloria Estefan captivated a massive audience this past Sunday with her performance at Plaza de Colón in Madrid. The Cuban-American artist's show was a highlight of the annual Hispanidad Festival celebrated in the Spanish capital.
Expressing her excitement, Estefan exclaimed, “What a delight to be part of such a special celebration!” as reported by Telemadrid when she first took the stage. She thrilled fans with some of her most beloved hits, including “Oye mi canto,” which kicked off the concert, followed by “No pretendo,” “Hoy,” and “La vecina.”
One of the most touching moments came when she invited her husband, renowned producer Emilio Estefan, to join her in a duet of “Con los años que me quedan.” The crowd waved flags from Cuba, Peru, Argentina, Mexico, and of course, Spain, adding to the event's vibrant atmosphere, as noted by Telemadrid.
Estefan also shared the stage with Nathy Peluso and her daughter Emily, performing songs like “Chirriqui Chirri.” The concert concluded on a powerful note with “Cuba libre,” a song through which she has consistently called for freedom for the island nation.
The President of the Community of Madrid, Isabel Díaz Ayuso, wished Estefan well for a concert that ultimately proved to be a resounding success.
