The event, held at Circus Maximus, an ancient chariot-racing stadium, was initially supposed to take place at the pyramids of Giza in Egypt but was canceled due to “complex production issues.” Rome’s civil protection department told CNN that one attendee at the show sprayed pepper spray into the crowd, injuring the group of 60 people in the process.

Travis Scott’s mammoth show in Rome has sparked controversy after causing ‘earthquake-like’ levels of movement, featuring a surprise appearance from Kanye West and reportedly leaving 60 fans injured.The rapper brought his new album ‘Utopia’ to Italy on Monday (August 7) – holding a one-off show in Rome before he kicks off his upcoming tour of the same name. Originally, the first performance was set to be held at the Pyramids of Giza in Egypt, however, the date was ultimately cancelled.However, for the gig at Italy’s Circus Maximus earlier this week, the event turned out to be more chaotic than pre-anticipated, and reports have come through that many fans were left injured at the concert.First highlighted by CNN, at least 60 members of Scott’s 60,000-strong crowd were left needing medical attention after someone brought pepper spray to the show and used it on people in the crowd.It also reported that, although nobody was gravely injured at the event as far as we know, one 14-year-old was also left needing medical assistance after they tried to scale a false wall to sneak into the concert, and fell 13 feet.NME has reached out to Travis Scott’s representatives for comment.Following the aftermath of the gig, some have begun worrying that holding live shows at the venue is causing damage to the ancient site, and have since created a campaign to halt all future events there.These calls for change came from Alfonsina Russo, director of the head of the Colosseum Archeological Park, who called for an end to all future performances at the site.
