Overview
- Before about 12,000 people at Madrid’s Movistar Arena, Sabina told the crowd the show was “the last concert of my life,” closing his Hola y adiós tour.
- The tour comprised 71 concerts worldwide and, according to promoter figures, sold more than 700,000 tickets after a surge of demand following his 2024 announcement.
- Sabina and his entourage have framed the move as a farewell to large venues rather than a full stop to creativity, though his longtime representative told EFE he believes the retirement will be definitive.
- Coverage cites his health history as context for the decision, including a 2001 ischemic stroke and a 2020 fall at the same venue that led to ICU care and two operations.
- Future artistic activity remains possible under his stated terms, and his representative says he has an active Sony deal and a half-made album with Leiva producing, a detail reported from a single source.
