Although there was a strong backlash on social media with many calling for the concert to be postponed due to the adverse weather conditions, the organizers not only did not cancel the famous band’s scheduled performance, but completed it with fireworks amidst heavy rain.

The organizers were determined from Tuesday September 5 that the concert would take place in any case. In fact, in their update they wrote: “The updated meteorological forecasts for the concert’s times do not cause any concern that it will not take place.” The stadium gates were scheduled to open at 5:30 p.m. However, they did not open and took the world to the indoor basketball. The concert started at 21:00 and continued with people in the mud. Tickets were almost sold out.
