Halsey's concert recently ended in chaos. The reason is, the concert which was scheduled to be held on Wednesday (8/6) was suddenly hit by a storm. In fact, the audience had filled the Marriweather Post Pavilion outdoor venue located in Columbia, Maryland.


The weather on Wednesday morning looks very sunny and the atmosphere for the outdoor concert looks very supportive. Therefore, the committee and fans did not think that Halsey's concert had to be cancelled.


The reason, the storm that hit the concert resulted in quite fatal. Halsey's concert suddenly flooded. The water level due to the storm surge is estimated to be above ankle.


Ironically, the floodwaters were accompanied by garbage. Halsey's concert was suddenly filled with garbage and puddles that had turned cloudy. Not only that, some small animals such as fish and frogs were even swept away by the flood and roamed around in the concert.


A number of fans also shared videos of the chaos that occurred at the concert location. In the video that was shared, it was seen that the rain was still pouring heavily at the concert.


Therefore, the committee was forced to cancel and postpone the concert. Halsey also had time to express his apology. He regretted that the concert had to be cancelled. According to him, the decision was made for the safety of all parties.


One viewer described the condition of the concert when it was raining heavily to BuzzFeed News. "Water rushing through the amphitheater. Bottled water, bottled beer, chicken tenders, you name it, flooded the stairs into the hole," said 26-year-old Staci Downing.


"The flood started to submerge the venue. At first I heard people screaming, and turned around and saw the water flowing like a waterfall from top to bottom," said Anna Johns (26). "If I don't lift my feet to stand on my chair and on the railings, there's probably going to be water up to my ankles," says Ben Kelkis. (wk/Side)
