Bad Bunny's second Milan concert, scheduled for Saturday, July 18 at the Ippodromo La Maura, has been definitively cancelled after being interrupted by the violent storm that hit the city. Live Nation announced on Sunday morning that the show will not be rescheduled and that all tickets will be fully refunded.
The evening had started as planned in front of roughly 78,500 spectators. After more than an hour of music, during which the Puerto Rican artist had also paid tribute to Italy by singing "Bella ciao" and joked about the weather ("It's much cooler than yesterday"), the sky began to darken. An initial burst of rain led organizers to temporarily suspend the concert, in the hope that the bad weather would ease off.
A few minutes later, however, the situation deteriorated: the rain turned into violent hail, forcing organizers to permanently halt the show and begin evacuating the racecourse. The crowd exited while the storm continued to rage over the concert area.
According to the fire department, several spectators suffered minor injuries after being struck by unusually large hailstones, and were treated by the 118 emergency medical staff on site.
After the show was cut short, many fans voiced their disappointment online, complaining that they had only seen part of the concert and asking for clarification on a possible rescheduling. On Sunday, Live Nation's final decision came through: no new date, and a full refund for tickets already purchased.
Numerous videos quickly appeared on social media documenting the moment the show was halted and the crowd filing out in the rain.
