Travis Scott's Giza Pyramids Concert Cancellation: All you may want to know
Travis Scott's much-anticipated concert at the Giza Pyramids, where he planned to unveil his new album 'Utopia,' faced cancellation due to challenging production problems, as stated by event organizer Live Nation. Two days before the scheduled event, Live Nation officially announced the unfortunate cancellation of Travis Scott's 'Utopia' show, which was initially slated to take place at the historic Pyramids of Giza in Egypt on July 28.
The decision was attributed to the complexities involved in setting up the show in the desert. The concert's fate had remained uncertain since its announcement, with the Egyptian musicians syndicate recently revoking its permit, citing concerns over «strange rituals» performed by Scott during his shows.
Moreover, some Egyptian social media users launched a campaign calling for the concert's cancellation, using the hashtag " #Ban_Travis_Scott_Concert" in Arabic. Although disappointed with the cancellation, Travis Scott expressed optimism about holding a Pyramids concert in the future.
He assured fans that the album release of 'Utopia' would proceed as planned, set to hit the airwaves on Thursday at midnight. In recent months, Travis Scott has faced legal challenges related to his 2021 Astroworld Festival in Houston, Texas, where 10 people tragically lost their lives, and many others were injured in a crowd surge during his performance.
