J. Cole Cancels Sacramento Concert After Crew Member’s Death

"Our thoughts are with the crew member's family and loved ones during this incredibly difficult time," Golden 1 Center shared in a statement.

J. Cole Cancels Sacramento Concert After Crew Member’s Death

J. Cole has called off his concert in Sacramento, California, on August 27 due to the death of a crew member. The venue announced the cancellation on Instagram, citing that the crew member had been killed in a trucking accident earlier that day. No further information about the accident or the crew member's identity was released at the time.

Ticket holders who bought tickets through Ticketmaster will receive refunds automatically, while those who purchased tickets through third-party sellers are asked to contact their respective points of purchase. The Sacramento show was part of J. Cole's The Fall-Off Tour, his first solo headlining tour in five years and his first worldwide tour in nearly a decade.

The tour is promoting his seventh album, The Fall Off, and was set to perform in over 50 cities across 15 countries. J. Cole's subsequent dates, including Oakland on August 28, Los Angeles on September 1, and September 3, remain uncertain. The Golden 1 Center expressed gratitude for understanding.
