On November 30, 2025, Spanish singer-songwriter Joaquín Sabina gave his final concert of the 'Hola y adiós' tour at Madrid's Movistar Arena, ending his musical career. The evening was filled with emotion, nostalgia, and an enthusiastic audience singing along to his hits. It marked a historic moment for fans, coinciding with the anniversary of Fernando Pessoa's death.
Joaquín Sabina's 'Hola y adiós' tour reached its 71st and final show at Madrid's Movistar Arena in Plaza de Felipe II. An hour before doors opened, anticipation filled the air, with fans wearing bowlers and sharing choruses, secretly hoping it was not a true goodbye.
The performance started with a video of 'Un último vals', followed by Sabina entering in a white bowler hat and kicking off with 'Yo me bajo en Atocha'. Over more than two hours, he played songs like 'Lágrimas de mármol', sparking crowd energy, and 'Lo niego todo', uniting thousands in song. Emotion built with 'Mentiras piadosas', 'Ahora que', 'Calle Melancolía', and '19 días y 500 noches', which the audience sang passionately.
Breathers came with 'Más de cien mentiras', 'Camas vacías' featuring Mara Barros on vocals, and 'Pacto entre caballeros' with Jaime Asúa. Sabina returned strongly for 'De purísima y oro', 'Peces de ciudad', and 'Una canción para la Magdalena'. By 22:01, fans stood, applauding and raising hands in rhythm.
The peak featured 'Por el bulevar de los sueños rotos', 'Y sin embargo te quiero', 'Noches de boda', and 'Y nos dieron las diez' in a joyful atmosphere. Encores had Antonio García de Diego leading 'La canción más hermosa del mundo', and Sabina ended with 'Tan joven y tan viejo', 'Contigo', 'Princesa', and 'La canción de los buenos borrachos'. He departed waving his bowler hat, capping a night of emotional triumph.
