Kanye West has reportedly started to plan for a massive concert in Reggio Emilia, Italy, that will entertain more than 80,000 people on Friday (October 13).<\/p>\n

According to the Italian news<\/a>paper ReggiOnline<\/a><\/em> \u2014 which bills itself as the \u201cofficial voice\u201d of the northern Italian city \u2014 West has reportedly dispatched all the necessary workers to construct a stage in preparation for the Friday the 13th event.<\/p>\n

However, the outlet also makes clear that while the \u201cThrough the Wire\u201d rapp<\/a>er may be dispatching the necessary field workers to get the proverbial party started, he hasn\u2019t gotten the necessary authorizations from the Italian governing bodies to officially launch the concert at that date and time.<\/p>\n

\u201cNel caso si arrivasse lunghi, sul tavolo c\u2019\u00e8 anche la data del venerd\u00ec successivo,\u201d reports the outlet. \u201cAnche sulla chat dei volontari impegnati nei grandi concerti dell\u2019estate appena conclusa \u00e8 partito un sondaggio per capire chi potr\u00e0 essere presente e chi no.\u201d<\/p>\n

Translation: in the event the authorizations aren\u2019t forthcoming, the date of the following Friday (which would be October 20) is also on the table. Additionally, there is speculation that the preparations are merely for an end-of-summer concert, and the rumors of who could be performing still hang in the air, especially in the absence of official confirmation from West\u2019s camp or other camps.<\/p>\n

If the surprise Kanye West concert does, indeed, take place, it would be hosted at the RCF Arena<\/a>, which is located at the former site of the Campovolo airport, and could, indeed, accommodate that many people.<\/p>\n

The Arena\u2019s website, however, has not made any announcement about any concert on October 13, let alone a Kanye West concert.<\/p>\n

For what it\u2019s worth, Kanye West last performed in Italy on August 7, when Travis Scott debuted UTOPIA<\/em> in front of 60,000 Italian fans. That show marked the first time<\/a> West had hit the stage since he made a string of antisemitic and anti-BLM comments in 2022.<\/p>\n

Rocking all-black along with a black hood covering most of his face, a Jesus piece chain, and nothing on his feet, Kanye performed Donda<\/em>\u2018s \u201cPraise God\u201d with Scott, as well as his 2007 anthem \u201cCan\u2019t Tell Me Nothing.\u201d<\/p>\n

Travis Scott made sure to give West his flowers.<\/p>\n

\u201cThere is no UTOPIA<\/em> without Kanye West,\u201d Scott told the crowd. \u201cThere is no Travis Scott without Kanye West. There is no Rome without Kanye West.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
