In an announcement posted on Instagram Thursday (Jan. 9), organizers wrote, “It is with heavy hearts that we report that we will be canceling our ALTer Ego show this Saturday at the KIA Forum.”
“The devastation from the fires is beyond comprehension,” the post continued. “Our thoughts are with the Los Angeles community and listeners who have been affected by this tragedy. We also want to recognize and thank all the first responders.”
Adding that refunds would soon be available to ticket-holders at their points of purchase, the bulletin concluded, “We love our city and are putting health and safety first … Stay safe.”
The announcement comes about 48 hours into the ongoing natural disaster unfolding in California, which began Tuesday morning (Jan. 7) as wind-fueled fames rapidly traveled across the Palisades area faster than first responders could put them out. At least five people have died so far, according to CNN, while nearly 180,000 people are under evacuation orders or warnings. Multiple other blazes have since started, including the Sunset fire, which has led to evacuations in Hollywood and the Hollywood Hills; the Eaton fire, impacting Pasadena and Altadena; and the Hurst fire around Sylmar.
This year’s ALTer EGO had been set for Saturday (Jan. 11) at Inglewood’s Kia Forum in what would’ve been iHeartRadio’s eighth annual iteration of the event dedicated to showcasing the best of contemporary rock. Fontaines D.C., Incubus, St. Vincent, The Lumineers, The Head And The Heart and The Offspring had also been set to perform, while Damiano David of Måneskin had been planning a special solo performance.
