Rogers Stadium Hit Hard by Storm | Music News

About this episode

Toronto’s Rogers Stadium is reeling after a monstrous thunderstorm tore through on September 2nd, ripping apart massive sections of the North seating area in the 50,000-capacity venue. Dubbed a “one-hundred-year” storm, it dumped nearly five inches of rain, snapped power lines, blocked roads with fallen trees, and flooded basements across the city. Aerial footage reveals stadium seats scattered like debris. Live Nation is assessing damage — thankfully, no injuries reported — while the fate of AC/DC’s highly anticipated final show on September 16th hangs in the balance. Stay tuned as repairs unfold and plans shift.

On September 4th, yo, so check it. Toronto's Roger Stadium might be in a tough spot for its final show of the season. A crazy thunderstorm rolled through on Wednesday, September 2nd, and it did some serious damage. We're talking big sections of the North Seating area ripped up in that 50,000 capacity spot. This storm wasn't playing around. Reports are calling it a 100-year-old van, dropping almost 5 inches of rain in some places. But power lines went down, trees blocked streets, and a lot of folks ended up afflited basements. The aerial footage shows some wild destruction to those stadium seats, like they were just tossed around. Live Nation is on the scene, assessing everything. They put out a statement saying they're figuring out the full extent of the damage, but the main thing is, nobody got hurt during all this extreme. Weather. Safety first, always. The big question now is, what this means for the upcoming ACDC show on September 16th, which is supposed to be the last one there this year. They're still working out the details and having given a definitive word on whether that

show can go on as planned. We'll have to keep an eye on this situation, as more information comes out about the repairs, and if that final concert is still on the books. You've been listening to Music News today, AI-powered music coverage.
