Kanye West’s European tour in doubt as more concerts cancelled in Poland and Switzerland

Kanye West's European tour is in jeopardy as concerts in Poland and Switzerland have been cancelled due to his past antisemitic comments. FC Basel cited their values as the reason for denying West a platform, while Poland's Silesian Stadium cancelled his performance after the culture minister condemned his "promotion of nazism." The Polish government is considering barring West from entering the country. These cancellations follow a postponed show in Marseille and West being blocked from entering the UK to headline London's Wireless festival. The remaining stops on West's announced European tour include Turkey, the Netherlands, Italy, Madrid, and Portugal.

A Kanye West concert scheduled for June 19th at the Silesian Stadium in Chorzów, Poland has been cancelled. The venue cited "formal and legal reasons" for the cancellation, which follows pressure from the Polish government and public condemnation of West's antisemitic, racist, and pro-Nazi comments. Poland's culture minister deemed the booking "unacceptable." This cancellation comes after West postponed a concert in France and was banned from entering the UK to headline Wireless Festival. West's past actions include selling swastika T-shirts and releasing a song containing pro-Nazi sentiments. Despite a public apology in January where he denied being a Nazi or antisemite, the Polish concert was ultimately cancelled.
