Concert Cancellation Sparks Controversy: Nuria Fergó's Villajoyosa Show Halted Over Equipment Dispute

A concert by Nuria Fergó in Villajoyosa, Alicante, was canceled just moments before its scheduled start on Saturday, June 7th, 2025. The singer cited a lack of adequate technical equipment provided by the Villajoyosa town hall as the reason for the cancellation. In a statement, Fergó expressed her disappointment and explained that the insufficient equipment prevented her from performing to her standards. "I had to take the decision not to give the concert tonight because your town hall hasn't met the minimum requirements," she stated. However, the Cofradía Virgen de Tíscar, the organization that contracted Fergó, countered this claim, asserting that "what was there is what the artist requested." They further pledged to release evidence demonstrating their fulfillment of the contract. The incident has raised questions about the responsibilities of event organizers and local authorities in providing adequate resources for artists' performances. The video footage shows Fergó addressing the disappointed audience, highlighting the lack of essential sound equipment, including monitors, as crucial elements for a successful concert. The situation underscores the importance of clear communication and contract adherence between artists and event organizers.
