delayed due to bad weather.The concert, which was held at FedEx Field, was delayed for nearly two hours as management had concertgoers shelter in place, reported a local DC ABC outlet. “Due to lightning in the area, we are currently under a shelter-in-place order,” reads a tweet from officials. “Fans outside of gates and in the parking lots are asked to return to their cars.

All fans inside of the stadium are asked to shelter in place under covered concourse areas and ramps until further notice.” One reporter who was inside the stadium at the time of the order claimed that several people were being treated for heat exhaustion. “From FedEx Field official: During shelter-in-place, a number of people were treated on-site for heat exhaustion given the temperatures and how packed people were in the concourse,” tweeted 7 News reporter Christian Flores. “The safest place to be during severe weather.

One person taken to the hospital for heat exhaustion.”The scene in DC mirrored that of the Nashville leg of Taylor Swift’s “Eras” Tour when guests were told to shelter in place at Nissan Stadium due to a severe lightning storm.

At 8:25 p.m., the venue signaled an all-clear, however, one Queen Bey fan revealed that as of 8:40 p.m., no one was still being admitted “including people who have been scanned and have wristbands.” The continued delay sparked chaos and confusion. “I have NEVER had a concert entry experience like this,” tweeted on local Fox News reporter who also included a video showing a rather tense confrontation with police. “I’m in but … oh my.”I have NEVER had a concert entry experience like this.
