The extreme heat that has plagued metro Phoenix this summer has led to another concert cancellation.
50 Cent joins the likes of other musicians whose shows have been impacted by the area’s scorching temperatures this summer.
In July, heavy metal band Disturbed postponed its concert, saying equipment wouldn’t work in metro Phoenix’s excessive heat. That outdoor show at the Talking Stick Resort Amphitheatre has been rescheduled for March 2, 2024. And at country singer Morgan Wallen’s July 19 concert in Phoenix, some fans complained on social media that some concession stands at Chase Field ran out of water. Others said they left the venue early because of the hot conditions despite the baseball stadium’s retractable roof being closed.
Phoenix is closing in on the record for most 110-degree days in a year — 53 days, set in 2020. Weather Service meteorologists said Tuesday marked the 51st day. There was no immediate word on when 50 Cent’s Phoenix show on his “The Final Lap Tour” will be rescheduled.
