Chaos Erupts At DAY6’s Concert In Jakarta, Fans Wait In Danger
Chaos unfolded ahead of DAY6’s concert in Indonesia today as severe weather conditions and poor crowd management left fans in dangerous situations outside the venue.
The concert, organized by Mecima Pro, is now under fire after viral videos and fan accounts highlighted the lack of proper safety measures during a thunderstorm.
Fans gathered early in anticipation of the show, some for soundcheck entry, but were forced to wait outside in harsh weather. Torrential rain and strong winds swept through the area, creating a chaotic and unsafe environment. With little shelter provided, fans had to rely on a large black gazebo-like structure that ultimately failed to withstand the elements.

One viral video captured a particularly alarming moment when part of the temporary shelter collapsed under the weight of collected rainwater. The tarp ripped open, spilling a large amount of water onto the ground. Fortunately, no injuries were reported as fans had moved away from the area just in time. However, the incident has sparked outrage online, with many pointing out how easily things could have taken a more serious turn.

Despite the unfolding situation, Mecima Pro initially remained silent until issuing a brief statement on their official X (formerly Twitter) account announcing a delay.
– For safety reasons, we are delaying the entrance to the concert area. We will proceed with the entrance once the condition gets better. We apologise for the inconvenience and appreciate your cooperation.

While the announcement confirmed the concert would be delayed, it failed to address the conditions fans were enduring outside. Videos circulating online show fans chanting angrily against the organizers while standing in flooded, wind-battered lines.
