Overview
- On Saturday evening a sudden hailstorm struck the open-air Ippodromo SNAI San Siro during Bad Bunny’s performance, and videos show large hailstones hitting the crowd.
- Event staff and the fire brigade ordered and led a full evacuation of the venue after initially pausing the show.
- Emergency teams treated several people for light head injuries from hailstones that Italian outlets described as as large as walnuts.
- About 80,000 ticket-holders were affected and the evacuation caused local transport disruption including temporary closure of the nearby Uruguay metro station.
- Organizers have confirmed the Milan date will not be made up, refunds will be issued, and the incident highlights the risks open-air venues face from sudden severe weather.
