(BEIRUT, LEBANON) — Egyptian singer Tamer Hosni cancelled his August concert in Beirut, sources close to “Beirut Holidays” said.
Hosni and his promoters decided to cancel the August 23 concert because he is “uncomfortable performing in Lebanon and the whole region,” according to the source.
Concerts for Lebanese singer Elissa and French singer Garu will still go on as scheduled at the Beirut waterfront.
An-Nahar newspaper said Hosni’s concert was called off due to the ongoing security concerns in Lebanon, which has affected ticket sales.
