Peso Pluma Cancels Florida Concerts After Hurricane Milton, Contributes to Relief Efforts
Peso Pluma has decided to cancel his upcoming performances in Florida as part of his Éxodo Tour to show support for those impacted by the recent hurricanes.
The “Ella Baila Sola” artist was set to perform at Tampa’s Amalie Arena (October 16) and Miami’s Kaseya Center (October 17), but these events will no longer conclude his nearly 40-date tour. Ticketmaster will automatically process refunds, while those who bought tickets from resale sites should contact their sellers directly.
The tour will officially wrap up with a show in Greensboro, North Carolina, on Sunday.
A statement released on Friday indicated that Peso Pluma, along with his label Double P Records and management team Prajin Parlay Inc., has made financial contributions to local organizations aiding in hurricane recovery. “Our entire family at Double P Records/Prajin Parlay Inc. prays for the swift recovery of everyone affected,” the statement reads.
Details about the specific organizations receiving assistance from Peso Pluma’s donations were not disclosed.
The Éxodo Tour supports his latest album released in June and began in July. Last year, representatives from Doble P shared with YSL News that his music represents a regional Mexican genre that has gained global traction, stating, “This is no longer just regional music. Mexican music is now being enjoyed worldwide.”
While many major airports and tourist attractions across Florida reopened on Friday, rescue crews continued to assist those stranded in floodwaters, with nearly 2 million utility customers still experiencing outages, as reported by YSL News’s outage tracker.
Hurricane Milton struck Florida’s beleaguered west coast on Wednesday evening, coming in as a Category 3 storm and posing significant threats to areas like Tampa Bay and Sarasota, which were still recovering from Hurricane Helene.
According to FEMA Administrator Deanne Criswell, the most severe impact from Hurricane Milton resulted from over 30 tornadoes spawned by the storm.
This latest hurricane follows closely behind Hurricane Helene, which caused destruction across Florida as well as parts of Georgia, South Carolina, North Carolina, Virginia, and Tennessee. Helene first made landfall in Florida as a Category 4 hurricane on September 26, resulting in over 200 fatalities.
