Less than seven hours after tickets for Joaquín Sabina’s last massive tour in Spain went on sale, the Wizink Center in Madrid, with capacity to accommodate around 15,500 people, announced that the four initially scheduled dates of the tour were full. tour in the capital. The last of the singer-songwriter on mass stages. On the same day, two more dates were announced for October and November 2025 in the same place in the capital and the sale is already going at a furious pace. In the rest of the cities within the Spanish tour, although there are still tickets on sale, it is difficult to find two adjacent places. In Buenos Aires it has sold all the tickets for 10 days. In Mexico City there are still some seats left.

It all started five days ago when Sabina announced the dates of the Spanish leg of her tour, accompanied by a new song and a music video directed by filmmaker Fernando León de Aranoa. In it One last waltz, written by Sabina himself together with Benjamín Prado and produced by Leiva, the one from Úbeda alludes to his own defects and highlights episodes of his life, such as his famous fall into the pit of the WiZink Center in February 2020 at the concert with Serrat. The video, almost as important as the song, is a meeting of friends (Serrat, José Tomás, Darín, Calamaro, García Montero…) who come together to pay tribute to the protagonist and have a last drink. The images and lyrics of the song — “When my face doesn’t appear in the newspapers, nor do the bride and groom dance on wedding nights, when it’s only fashionable if I fall off the stage again” — served as promotion for a tour that appeals to melancholy.

Is called Hello and goodbye, will begin in January next year in America, where tickets have also sold quickly. Especially in the two countries that profess the most love for the composer: Argentina and Mexico. In Buenos Aires, he filled the first two announced dates of his tour in a matter of hours, and then added, two by two, new concerts until he reached ten. The dozen shows finally scheduled at the Movistar Arena in the Argentine capital, with a capacity for 13,500 people, are all already sold out. In Mexico City, at the National Auditorium, which can hold 10,000 souls, there are still some places left for two of the six scheduled concerts.

Sabina will return to the stage just a year after the end of her last tour, Against all oddswhich toured practically the same cities that this one will tour. The numbers from then already announced the success of the new tour. More than 700,000 people saw Sabina in one of the 60 concerts on both sides of the Puddle.
