Following the devastation from One Direction fans in Belfast last night after their concert was cancelled last minute, Aiken Promotions has today released a statement – and there’s some light at the end of the tunnel!
The scheduled gigs for tonight and tomorrow in SSE Arena, Belfast WILL still be going ahead, and last night’s concert, axed due to singer Liam Payne falling ill, has been put back to a later date.
The statement says: “Tonight’s and tomorrow night’s One Direction concerts in SSE Arena, Belfast will be going ahead as planned. Once again we apologise for the cancellation of last night’s One Direction show. We thank everyone for their understanding and their good wishes to Liam.
“Tuesday’s concert has been rescheduled for this Friday 23rd October. All tickets from last night’s postponed concert will be valid for Friday. For anyone not able to attend the rescheduled Show on Friday, please contact point of purchase for detail of how to obtain a refund.”
