Seven-year-old with Down’s syndrome kicked out of P!nk gig as he wouldn’t sit in seat

P!nk gig after not sitting in his seat.The moment occurred at the singer’s recent show at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in London over the past weekend, as she took to the stage as part of her extensive ‘Summer Carnival World Tour’.Ahead of the performance, concertgoer Vanessa Vasey and her son Jesse went to the stadium to watch the set, but the seven-year-old who has Down’s Syndrome and sensory disorders found it hard to sit still.According to reports from Metro, Vasey had prepared for this and had brought her friend Kirsty to stand near the seating area while her son danced.

That being said, just before P!nk went on stage, a group of security guards confronted them and asked them to go back to their seats.Vasey said that she explained the situation, and was told that either they had to take their seats or leave the gig.

With Jesse being unable to sit in his seat, four more security guards allegedly arrived and escorted them out.She had paid £630 on tickets which had lounge access – so Jesse could move to the restaurant areas and not be stuck in his seat – and before being kicked out of the venue, they were offered access to a soundproof sensory room.

They turned down the offer for the latter, however, as they thought it would leave Jesse watching the show on a screen without hearing any of it from the stage.“We couldn’t wait as it was going to be such a special moment for us to experience together.
