- Drake fans experienced deep disappointment on Monday as his highly anticipated show in Vancouver was unexpectedly canceled.
- The show, scheduled to take place at Rogers Arena, had to be called off due to technical issues with a newly installed scoreboard.
- A heartbreaking video footage captured outside the arena showed some devastated fans in tears.
Drake’s fans in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada, were left disappointed on Monday as his scheduled show was abruptly canceled due to technical difficulties.
The renowned “Rich Flex” rapper was all set to kick off his It’s All A Blur Tour with two consecutive shows at Rogers Arena.
According to a report by CBC News, the cancellation occurred merely two hours before the show was supposed to start.
The managing authority of Rogers Arena, Canucks Sports and Entertainment (CSE), released a statement on X (formerly known as Twitter), citing “unforeseen circumstances with the newly-installed video board” as the reason behind the cancellation.
CSE further stated that the postponed Drake performance has been rescheduled for Wednesday, August 30, and all existing tickets will be valid for the new date.
In addition, CSE reassured fans that Drake’s show on Tuesday would proceed as planned.
“Drake was fully prepared and enthusiastic to perform,” expressed CSE. “He is eagerly looking forward to meeting everyone on both Tuesday and Wednesday. Rogers Arena apologizes for any inconvenience caused.”
Understandably, the sudden cancellation left many fans devastated.
Footage captured by CBC News outside Rogers Arena showed grieving fans, while some expressed their frustration by attempting to obtain refunds.
“If we decide to stay, we would have to book a hotel, change our flights,” stated one disheartened fan.
Another saddened attendee remarked, “I had been planning this for months, saving up a significant amount of money, and we arrived here full of excitement. And just two hours before it was supposed to happen, they inform us that the stage wasn’t ready.”
A separate video shared on X displayed enraged fans venting their anger at a staff member of Rogers Arena.
While on his It’s All A Blur Tour, Drake had been accompanied by fellow rapper 21 Savage. However, in March, Complex reported that Savage would not be appearing at the Canadian tour dates.
