Drake tour stop at FedExForum cancelled once again, according to Ticketmaster

Originally scheduled for March 5, the Ticketmaster website now says the rescheduled April 8 date is now cancelled.

MEMPHIS, Tenn. — Is it bad luck or just "God's Plan"? According to the Ticketmaster website, Memphis fans of Drake are once again faced with the cancellation of a scheduled concert at the FedExForum.

This is the second time a Drake concert at the forum has been scheduled, rescheduled and then outright cancelled.

After initially rescheduling the Memphis stop for his "It's All a Blur Tour" on Thursday, June 29, 2023, it was then rescheduled to Aug. 6, 2023. Later Ticketmaster posted a similar message on their site: "the event organizer has had to cancel the event."

More recently, the Drake and J. Cole show at FedExForum was originally set for March 2024 but was rescheduled for April 8 before now being cancelled, according to Ticketmaster's website.

Customers of the concert tickets will reportedly not have to take action in order to receive a refund, Ticketmaster said. 

They are said to be "processed to the original method of payment used at time of purchase" once the funds are "received from the event organizer," according to the company. Ticketmaster said this process typically takes 30 days.

If tickets were transferred to a would-be concert-goer, Ticketmaster said the refund will go to "the fan who originally purchased the tickets.

Last year, ABC24's Richard Ransom sat down with Drake’s dad — Dennis Graham — a Memphian who discussed the rapper's partial upbringing in the Bluff City.

"He tells people 'I’m from Memphis,'" Dennis said. "He’ll tell you in a second. 'I’m from Memphis. That’s my home.'”

Despite growing up in Toronto with his mom, Drake reportedly spent summers with his dad in Memphis at his grandmother’s home in the Whitehaven area.
