Revellers gearing up for Shatta Wale’s concert in Wolverhampton in the United Kingdom have been hit with disappointing news after management disclosed today the event has been cancelled.

A statement issued today disclosed “We regret to announce the cancellation of the highly anticipated Shatta Wale concert scheduled to take place

at The Hangar in Wolverhampton on November 4, 2023.”

According to them, the  decision was made due to unforeseen circumstances “concerning the artist’s demands that the promoters have been unable to meet.”

“Shatta Wale, the celebrated and accomplished musician with numerous chart-topping hits to his credit, has set the gold standard in the music industry,” the statement added.  

Against this backdrop, they added that his rider and contractual requirements are equally grand, reflecting his status as a wealthy and successful artiste and a business mogul.

“Over the past two weeks, we have been diligently working to bring Shatta Wale’s electrifying performance to the people of Wolverhampton. The Hangar, known for hosting world-class events, was chosen as the venue for this remarkable night of music and entertainment. We believed that this concert would not only celebrate the incredible talent of Shatta Wale but also offer an unforgettable experience for his dedicated fans,” The statement added.

They added “However, we regret to inform the public that despite best efforts, the promoters have not been able to meet the luxurious demands and requirements specified by Shatta Wale’s management. These demands, while fitting for an artiste of his stature, have proven to be logistically and financially challenging for the organization, making it is impossible for us to proceed with the event as planned.”

“Our primary concern is always to provide an outstanding experience for concertgoers, and we believe it would be unfair to compromise the quality of the show by attempting to cut corners or reduce our preparation value,” the statement said.

They further expressed their apologies “We would like to extend our sincere apologies to all the fans who have been eagerly looking forward to this

event. We understand the disappointment this cancellation may cause, and we share in that disappointment.”

Additionally, “refunds will be automatically issued to all ticket holders for the Shatta Wale concert. Please allow up to some days for the refund process to be completed, and we appreciate your patience in this matter.”

“We remain committed to delivering top-tier entertainment events in the future, and we will continue to bring you memorable experiences that showcase incredible talent. We thank the public, financiers, and supporters for their understanding in this matter, and we look forward to providing you with outstanding live entertainment shortly,” the statement concluded.
