Sad news for Burna Boy fans – the iconic Nigerian superstar, who was set to perform at the FNB stadium on Saturday, 23 September, postponed his concert partly due to low ticket sales.
According to News24, a statement by Ticketpro read that the Grammy award-winning artist will return to SA on 16 December.
“We regret to announce the postponement of the highly anticipated Burna Boy concert scheduled to take place at FNB Stadium, Johannesburg on 23 September 2023. The concert will now take place on 16th of December 2023.”
The statement further read, “This decision was not made lightly by the promoter and comes as a result of careful consideration and assessment of various factors, including the lack of ticket sales.
“For fans who are unable to attend on this date, we have set up a dedicated customer support channel. We ask fans to email us on mail info@ticketpros.co.za with their Burna Boy ticket reference and cell phone number so that we may assist with the refund process.”
On social media, the above-mentioned ticket-selling website had also provided information on how to get a refund.

Burna Boy took to his Instagram Story after critics commented about the postponement.
Referring to last year’s DStv Delicious Festival, he wrote, “I was in SA last year and I had 100 thousand of the most beautiful South Africans outside for me. So no dead agenda can agend ?? I will see you again real soon South Africa. I ❤️ you.”
