On Friday, July 1, the official Instagram page for “Day-N-Vegas” music festival released a lengthy statement.

This would’ve been Travis’ first festival appearance since his very own deadly Astroworld Festival in November 2021.

[{"selector":"#anim-c6a82c85-2ba5-41e3-bead-79b0d6b9c23c","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":200,"duration":1200,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-1a2e629b-571e-468b-b01f-5c3e14ed0155","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(115.77287%, 0px, 0)","translate3d(0px, 0px, 0)"]},"delay":200,"duration":1200,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-35ee0f49-0328-4f3b-b76e-0c86fbfaf401","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":0,"duration":2000,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.4, 0.4, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}]

On November 5th in Houston, TX. the “Sicko Mode” rapper put on his Astroworld Festival which saw ten people die and hundreds other injured.

[{"selector":"#anim-55def5bd-959d-463c-b0c7-65f9fc1c379a","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":200,"duration":1200,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-56c6f523-9e63-4863-a73b-beb888322b15","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(114.82649%, 0px, 0)","translate3d(0px, 0px, 0)"]},"delay":200,"duration":1200,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-c6f7e24c-1bdc-4cd8-877f-38222cab57d9","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":0,"duration":2000,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.4, 0.4, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}]

The cause of death for the victims of Astroworld was “compression asphyxia.”
