Post Malone Replaces Travis Scott in Headlining Slot at Day N Vegas Festival

Post Malone has replaced Travis Scott as a headliner for this weekend’s Day N Vegas festival, promoter AEG announced in social media posts Monday night.

Scott, whose career is in crisis as a result of the deadly calamity Friday night at his Astroworld Festival in Houston, had remained on the schedule posted on the Las Vegas gathering’s website though Monday night. But PvNew reported on Monday morning that he had already officially pulled out over the weekend, with sources saying he was “too distraught to play.”

Just prior to putting up the Post Malone news late Monday, the Day N Vegas account first posted a more solemn message that read: “Travis Scott will no longer be performing at Day N Vegas. The security and safety of all attending Day N Vegas has been and is always top priority in our festival planning.” Without promising any specific changes in store, the statement continued, “We continue to work hand in hand with law enforcement, medical personnel and public safety agencies on our protocols for the weekend. Please take care of yourselves and each other. Look forward to seeing you in a few days.”

Thirteen minutes later came the more chipper tweet: “We are excited that POST MALONEhas been added to close out Saturday night!”

The other headliners at Day N Vegas are Kendrick Lamar on Friday night and Tyler, the Creator on Sunday. The bill for the middle night was already star-packed — it would have seemed viable for AEG to move up either of Scott’s support acts that night, Lil Baby or Doja Cat — but the promoter moved quickly to bolster the star quotient with a replacement considered to be Scott’s equal in drawing power.

We are excited that @PostMalone has been added to close out Saturday night!
