Nicki Minaj's Pink Friday 2 Tour in Turmoil: Romania Gig Canceled and Dublin Show Cut Short

In May, Minaj rescheduled a gig in Manchester and canceled a second show in Amsterdam following an arrest for drug possession.

The 41-year-old rapper was set to headline the Saga Festival in Bucharest on Sunday but announced on X that her security team had advised against attending “due to safety concerns regarding protests in the area.” Minaj stated,

“Out of concern for the wellbeing of our team and myself, I have been advised by my security detail not to travel to Romania’s festival tonight due to safety concerns regarding protests in the area. I look forward to seeing you all at another time.”

She added, “As a mom, I have to make sure I’m making sound decisions for me to make it home to my son and for my team to make it home to their families. To not heed the advice of security at this time is simply not what I think I should be doing. I love you and thank you for your understanding and support.”

The festival organizers confirmed the cancellation on Instagram.

“It is with a heavy heart that we announce Nicki Minaj has just cancelled her performance due to concerns for her and her team’s well-being in Romania,” they stated. “This has nothing to do with Saga and is beyond our control. The news has left us all devastated, and we know it’s a huge disappointment for all of you, just as it is for us.”

The organizers mentioned that unscanned tickets for the show would be refunded.

The announcement upset the singer’s fans.

“I just want to make it clear that the main reason people are even coming to this festival is to see you perform live. The fact that you would only announce you are not coming ONE hour before your set is DISGUSTING!” one fan wrote on X.

“What protests?” another inquired.

“The protests are tomorrow and far away from the concert. In fact, you won’t even have to cross Bucharest to get to the airport from the concert. This is bulls*** and not respectful to your fans.”

There were also demands for refunds after the “Anaconda” singer’s weekend show in Dublin was cut short.

Minaj’s concert at Malahide Castle was scheduled to start at 8 pm and last for two hours. However, fans reported that the singer arrived an hour and a half late, leaving them waiting in the rain, and only performed for 45 minutes.

“I hope people at Nicki Minaj tonight at Dublin will be getting a refund,” one fan wrote on X, tagging Ticketmaster. “@NICKIMINAJ should be ashamed of herself, coming on just before 10 pm, hour and a half late, sings twice, and goes off to change with 15 minutes left before curfew. No respect for fans.”
