Trevor Noah’s Bengaluru shows cancelled: BookMyShow apologises for inconvenience caused

Trevor Noah’s shows in Bengaluru were cancelled due to ‘technical issues’ on September 27, following which the comedian apologised to the fans and said that the money would be refunded.

Now, BookMyShow has also issued an apology for cancelling the shows last minute. Taking to social media, the ticket-booking app wrote, ‘Bengaluru, we are extremely sorry for the inconvenience caused at Trevor Noah's Off The Record show at Manpho Convention Centre on September 27th. The Bengaluru leg of the India Tour for both September 27th & 28th stands cancelled. All customers who purchased tickets for both shows will get a complete refund within 8-10 working days. We deeply regret this experience that our valuable customers faced and hope to be able to bring Trevor back to this amazing city at the earliest.’

Apologising for causing 'inconvenience and disappointment' to his fans, Noah tweeted, 'Dear Bengaluru India, I was so looking forward to performing in your amazing city but due to technical issues, we've been forced to cancel both shows.’

'We tried everything but because the audience can't hear the comedians on stage there's literally no way to do a show. We'll make sure all ticket holders receive a full refund and again I'm so sorry for both the inconvenience and disappointment this has never happened to us before,' he added.

People who had braved Bengaluru's traffic to come to the show were furious after the show got cancelled and called out the organisers for mismanagement.

The Emmy-winning comedian kickstarted the Indian leg of his 'Off The Record' tour at Jawaharlal Nehru Stadium in New Delhi on September 22. He did two more shows in Delhi on September 23, and 24. He is now scheduled to preform in Mumbai.
