Hiram Bithorn Stadium - Other Uses

Other Uses

Along with sporting events, the stadium has hosted concerts by many famous artists.

Metallica were scheduled to perform during their Nowhere Else to Roam Tour on April 28, 1993, but it was rained out and never rescheduled; thus Metallica roamed elsewhere.

Shakira has performed twice, during her Tour Anfibio, on April 9, 2000 and during the Tour of the Mongoose, on March 22, 2003. As of now, this was the last major concert to be held at the stadium.
