Concertgoers’ chaotic behaviour at Travis Scott’s unruly Melbourne concert

Chaotic scenes have emerged from Travis Scott’s concert in Melbourne, with revellers seen breaking barricades and hurling objects.

Unruly scenes have emerged from Travis Scott’s latest concert in Melbourne, with many declaring they’d “never” attend one of his shows due to notoriously rowdy crowd behaviour.

The US rapper, 33, hit the stage at Marvel Stadium as part of his Circus Maximus World Tour Tuesday night after opening the Australian leg of his tour in Sydney last week.

Revellers were, clearly, overly pumped to be in attendance, with footage showing ticket holders aggressively hurling various objects into the audience and breaking barricades and carrying them over their heads en masse as police on horses attempted to disperse attendees.

It appears from footage most crowd goers were young males.

One user who posted a clip of the crowds to TikTok mused, “‘Why don’t you wanna come to the Travis Scott concert bro?’”, adding, “The people at Travis Scott concerts:”

“Where is security seriously this is shocking,” one user wrote.

“What’s security going to do with that many people acting like idiots,” another said.

“Seems about right for a Travis Scott concert,” a third added.

Another wrote, “Never more embarrassed to be an Aussie right now.”

“Kinda glad I couldn’t go,” a fifth chimed in.

Someone also expressed concern about plans to take her 13-year-old daughter to Scott’s Brisbane show, which is taking place at Suncorp Stadium October 26.

“Don’t!” one user urged the parent.

It’s not the first time crowd behaviour at the rapper’s concerts has been the subject of backlash.

His worldwide tour, which has already taken place in North America, South America and Europe, marks Scott’s first time hitting the road since his infamous 2021 performance at the Astroworld Festival in Houston Texas, where 10 people were killed and hundreds more injured in a stampede.

The victims were reportedly aged between nine and 27.

In 2023, a grand jury reportedly declined to indict Scott and five other people, including the manager of the festival.

At the time of the show, Scott’s pregnant girlfriend Kylie Jenner was watching him perform alongside their then three-year-old daughter Stormi.

Scott and Jenner have since split.

The 90210 singer broke his silence on the tragedy two years later in an interview with GQ, in which he told the magazine he was “overly devastated”.

“I always think about it,” he told the outlet in November 2023.

“Those fans were like my family. You know, I love my fans to the utmost.”
