Bad Bunny — MilanHailstorm Evacuation
A severe thunderstorm brought large hailstones, heavy rain, lightning and strong wind gusts to the second Milan date of the Debí Tirar Más Fotos World Tour. The performance was suspended, the venue was evacuated and the concert was subsequently cancelled.
Incident Overview
What Happened
Shortly after 21:00, approximately six songs or 30 minutes into the open-air performance, severe weather moved across the venue. Large hailstones, heavy rain, lightning and strong winds were reported.
The concert was initially suspended. Spectators were reportedly told to remain where they were before conditions worsened and evacuation was undertaken with assistance from firefighters, police, organisers and emergency medical personnel.
Live Nation later confirmed that the performance was cancelled, would not be rescheduled and that ticket holders would receive a full refund.
