Travis Scott left many fans frustrated and angered after he abruptly decided to cancel his second performance in Raleigh, North Carolina on Saturday.
The first show at Raleigh’s PNC Arena on Friday sold out so quickly that they added a second show on Saturday, though the 32-year-old rapper postponed it, via WRAL.
Many fans still showed up to PNC Arena – home of the NHL team Carolina Hurricanes – only to be greeted by a sign on the doors.
An audio announcement at the arena also told fans that the show was postponed due to, ‘reasons beyond our control’ which comes after Scott was questioned for a recent crowd surge.
The sign read, ‘Tonight’s Travis Scott concert at PNC Arena has been postponed. Fans are encouraged to hold on to their tickets as they will be honored for the TBD new date.’

‘We apologize for any inconvenience. Thank you!’ the sign concluded.
Friday’s show at PNC Arena was also postponed, though only for a few hours, with the sold-out show still taking place.
Scott even tweeted, ‘Raleigh we readyyyyy my limbs is on bungee jump,’ though he hasn’t tweeted or posted on Instagram about the postponement.
Scott hasn’t publicly said why the concert was postponed, which, ironically, was added to the tour schedule due to the massive demand of the first Raleigh show.
Ticket holder Tyler Long revealed to WHAL, ‘Yeah they just told me that they have no explanation of why he’s not here.’
Others took to Scott’s Instagram, commenting on his last post from Friday’s show, with one saying, ‘I hate you bro address the situation.’
Another said, ‘We drove 5 hours and booked a hotel in Raleigh to see you. Now we’re out of luck, why?’
Antother fan added, ‘Dreaming but couldn’t do night 2,’ while a fan named Kassidy Bhanath said over the phone that she at least wants an exlpanation.

‘We want to know why the concert was postponed and we also want to know what the artist Travis Scott has to say about the concert being postponed,’ she said.
‘Honestly, it’s really disappointing. I’ve never even been to a concert before so this would be my first time,’ added ticket holder Charlie Bodenstein.
The second Raleigh show was just the third show of Scott’s Utopia Circus Maximus Tour.
It is his first tour since the disastrous Astroworld tragedy, where 10 people were killed during a massive crowd surge.
