After the cancellation of Travis Scott’s proposed show at the Pyramids of Giza last month, he has revealed a new concert venue, another historical site of significance. Scott is scheduled to perform at the Circus Maximus in Rome, a current public park, once recognized as the most massive chariot-racing stadium in the Roman Empire, on Monday, August 7.
In July, Scott had initially planned to stage a live performance of his latest album, Utopia, at the Pyramids of Giza. Unfortunately, due to logistic issues, the concert was indefinitely postponed. Utopia was launched on July 28, boasting guest artists like Beyoncé, Drake, SZA, Bon Iver, among others.
Parallel to the album’s launch, Scott released a film named Circus Maximus, which he co-directed with Harmony Korine, Khalil Joseph, Gaspar Noe, Nicolas Winding Refn, and Valdimar Jóhannsson. The official poster of the film asserted that it was produced by A24. However, the production company promptly disclaimed any involvement in the project.

OMG! This is going to be insane! Scott at the Circus Maximus…historic! Can’t wait for it. Wish he could’ve done the Pyramids tho.
the whole Circus Maximus film thing seems fishy. Why’d A24 deny involvement? seems weird.
