With thousands of fans waiting for the country star to get on stage, and after opening acts Hardy and Ernest had already performed, the announcement was made.
“Ladies & gentlemen, unfortunately Morgan has lost his voice and is unable to perform tonight – therefore tonight’s show has been cancelled,” read an onscreen message, shared by users on Twitter.
Fans complained about the long wait before the last-minute announcement, with many directly calling Wallen out for not cancelling earlier.
One fan also posted a video to TikTok in which a security guard at the venue claimed that Wallen had not lost his voice, but was actually too drunk to take the stage.
