P!nk’s Mexico Concerts Canceled Due to ‘Unforeseen Circumstance’ Affecting Logistics
The two concerts that P!nk had scheduled for this spring at the GNP Seguros Stadium in Mexico City have been canceled, promoter Ocesa announced Friday (March 6). A show by singer Carolina Ross and another by rapper Lucho SSJ were also canceled, but Ocesa tells Billboard Español the cancellations are unrelated. In a statement shared on social media, the promoter said the cancellation of the pop star’s performances originally scheduled for April 26 and 27 is due to “complications arising from an unforeseen circumstance that affects the logistics of the event,” a situation that is “beyond the control of the artist, the promoter, and the venue.” The shows would have marked the return of the “So What” and “Get the Party Started” singer to Mexican stages after more than two decades.
“We understand how much fans were looking forward to these concerts, and we deeply appreciate their understanding,” Ocesa added. The company informed that those who purchased tickets online through Ticketmaster Mexico would receive a full refund automatically, including service fees, directly to the card used for purchase, in accordance with the timelines established by each banking institution.
Those who bought tickets at box offices can request their refund at the original point of sale in the coming days. Regarding the cancellation of the show by regional Mexican singer Carolina Ross, which was scheduled for May 2 at Mexico City’s Teatro Metropólitan, the promoter explained that it was due to “unforeseen logistical circumstances completely beyond the control of Ocesa, the artist, and the venue.” Tickets purchased online will also be refunded directly to the bank card used for the purchase.
If the tickets were purchased at the venue’s box office, refunds can be requested starting March 12.
