It was launched in support of her sixth and seventh studio albums Fijación Oral, Vol. 1 (2005). and Oral Fixation, Vol. 2 (2005). It began on 14 June 2006 at the Feria De Muestras in Zaragoza, Spain.[2] With assistance from the Creative Artists Agency, she visited twenty-seven cities and performed forty-one shows across five continents.[3] The tour was additionally sponsored by Spanish automobile manufacturer SEAT, with whom Shakira also collaborated to support her Pies Descalzos Foundation. The tour concluded on 23 December 2007 in Tbilisi, Georgia.

It was the 15th highest-grossing concert tour of 2006 grossing over $58.6 million, although this figure only includes 41 shows in that year. The total tour grossed over $100 million in both years. It's her most extensive tour to date.[4][5] She was the first female artist from her generation to have a tour grossing over 100 million dollars overall.
