Grammy-winning rapper Drake has postponed his Denver dates, three days before his rescheduled Ball Arena concerts. Again.
The Canadian rapper, currently on tour with J. Cole, was supposed to play Ball Arena on Thursday, Jan. 18, and Friday, Jan. 19 — shows that would make up for a single postponed concert from Sept. 8.
It’s not to be. Ticketmaster members today received an email with the latest postponement, although as of this writing, it’s not mentioned anywhere on Drake’s social media accounts or touring page.
Painfully enough, Drake’s September show was also canceled three days before it was supposed to happen, leaving more than 10,000 fans in the lurch.
The latest, and second, postponement has pushed Drake’s longer-overdue Denver visit Monday, April 15, and Tuesday, April 16, at Ball Arena. All previously purchased tickets for the other shows will be good at the April dates.
In September, Ticketmaster emailed ticketholders for three days before the Sept. 8 show to let them know that “due to the distance the road crew has to travel along with the magnitude of the production of the Drake concert, it is logistically impossible to bring the full experience of the show to Denver this September,” according to the message.
The Denver Post listed it among the biggest musical disses in Colorado history in its 2023 Year in Music roundup.
