Renowned Nigerian Afrobeat artist, Damini Ebunoluwa Ogulu, known as Burna Boy, has decided to cancel his highly anticipated concert in South Africa, which was initially scheduled to take place at Johannesburg’s FNB Stadium on September 23, 2023.
Burna Boy’s management released a statement explaining that the cancellation was due to the promoters’ failure to fulfill their contractual, production, financial, and technical obligations. They also expressed regret and promised to provide full refunds to all ticket holders.
It said, “Sadly, it is with great regret that we must inform you that despite my team’s effort, the show on September 23rd, in Johannesburg will be canceled over the inability of the promoters to fulfill their contractual, production, financial and technical obligations.
“Production vendors have still not been paid and as such, it is evident at this point that the agreed production standard needed for this venue size can’t be achieved.
“Deepest apologies to all fans, all ticketing companies must ensure that it is refunded in full. Looking forward to seeing you all soon.”
