Rapper Travis Scott’s “Utopia: Circus Maximu”s tour in Milan, Italy sold out the Ippodromo Snai La Maura open-field venue where a whopping 80, 000 people came to attend the concert.
Scott performed his hit song “FE!N” eight times in a row, making the fans jump so vigorously that the Italian locals thought an earthquake had occurred. However, there were no reports from the authorities. A few localities took to X, and shared their concern. “Did I alone feel three good tremors of #Terremoto in Milan?” posted one user.
The rapper took to Instagram to share the aerial view of his concert where people could be seen holding flashlights and forming mosh pits.
“LAST NIGHT WAS A DREAM. ‘NO THIS ISNT FESTIVAL. THIS A SHOW ON THE TOUR’ IN THE WORDS OF STROMBERG,” Scott wrote to Instagram. “MILAN YALL OWE ME NOTHING. YALL GAVE YALL ALL 80k OF YALL HAD THE BEST TIME EVER. CIRCUS MAXIMUS. @whitetrashtyler WAS ACTUALLY TURNT ABOUT THIS,” he posted.

Previous incident
This is not the first time that the “SICKO MODE” rapper caused such an uproar. Travis Scott is known for his great stage presence and electrifying concerts. Even last year, the rapper’s concert in Italy saw a crowd of over 60, 000 jumping which shook the ground and some locals felt tremors mistaking it for an earthquake.
Setting a new record
Travis Scott has also officially dethroned Taylor Swift for the most number of ticket sales in Italy after 200,000 this year.
Travis Scott’s Circus Maximus Tour has been dominating the music scene, with the first seven concerts of the European and UK leg earning an average of $3.3 million per event, totaling more than $23 million.
Touring for a cause
One euro/pound from every ticket sold on the tour benefits the Cactus Jack Foundation, which supports Houston youngsters via toy drives, scholarship programs for HBCU college students, and educational and artistic efforts.
So far, the Europe/UK portion of the tour has raised $250,000 for the Cactus Jack Foundation.
