In an official statement, Lubov mentioned that this was the first time in 30 years that SummerStage had to halt a concert for a non-weather-related issue. The decision to cancel the show was made to prioritize the safety of fans and concert-goers, following the request of the NYPD.

Juanes, dressed in black attire, began his set with his latest single “Gris” and continued with the popular hit “Mala Gente,” which excited the thousands in attendance. However, the show abruptly ended, causing disappointment among the audience.

Addressing the crowd, Juanes emphasized the importance of remaining calm to avoid the concert being stopped. Despite his efforts, the decision to cancel the event was made for the safety of all involved. Staff members announced the immediate evacuation of the venue, leaving many fans feeling let down.
