Bruno Mars Toronto Concert Postponed to May 31 After Heavy Rain

Organizers said the decision put guest, artist and crew safety first and promised tickets will be honoured with updates sent through the stadium app as well as Ticketmaster.

Overview

  • Live Nation Ontario and Rogers Stadium postponed the May 23 show on Saturday and rescheduled it for May 31, telling fans the move was made for safety.
  • Environment Canada issued a special weather statement for the Greater Toronto Area forecasting up to about 50 millimetres of rain and strong winds that worsened through the day.
  • Rogers Stadium and Live Nation said all previously purchased tickets will be honoured for the new date and that ticketholders should check the stadium app and Ticketmaster for details.
  • The announcement came only hours before the scheduled start time, drawing mixed reactions from fans with praise for the safety focus and complaints from people who travelled and sought refunds.
  • The run of Toronto dates continues on other nights at the fully outdoor Rogers Stadium and planners noted forecasts look calmer later in the weekend, but the late change has raised logistical challenges for attendees and staff.
