Nicki Minaj fans in Montreal were left disappointed and frustrated as the rapper’s highly anticipated show at the Bell Centre started three hours later than scheduled. The delay was attributed to runway and customs issues, causing a major setback for the concert.
According to reports, the show was supposed to begin at 8 p.m. on Saturday night, but fans were left waiting until 11 p.m. for Minaj to take the stage. Many took to social media to express their disappointment and anger, with some even demanding refunds for their tickets.
The delay was caused by a combination of factors, including runway issues at the airport and delays in customs clearance for Minaj’s team and equipment. This resulted in a delay in the arrival of the rapper and her crew, causing a ripple effect on the show’s start time.
Despite the frustration and disappointment, fans were still eager to see Minaj perform and the show eventually went on as planned. However, the late start meant that the concert ended much later than expected, causing inconvenience for those who had to work or travel the next day.
This is not the first time that a major artist has faced delays and setbacks while performing in Montreal. In 2018, Drake’s concert at the Bell Centre was also delayed due to similar issues with customs and airport runway problems.
The Bell Centre has not released an official statement regarding the delay, but fans are hoping for an explanation and possibly some form of compensation for the inconvenience caused.
In the end, while the delay may have dampened the spirits of some fans, it did not stop them from enjoying an electrifying performance from Nicki Minaj. However, it serves as a reminder of the importance of proper planning and coordination to ensure a smooth and timely start to any major event.
