Jeff Lynne’s Link The Manchester show was scrapped just minutes before Showtime, with the audience already seated in the venue. It was supposed to be the second show of the band’s “ Farewell Tour.”
Ticketholders in Manchester said they were told the performance would not go ahead just minutes before the band were due on stage at around 8:15 p.m.
BST Hyde Park organizers promoted Sunday’s performance as Elo’s Jeff Lynne “Sin Final Goodbye.”
Lynne previously said of the show: “My return to touring began in Hyde Park in 2014. It feels like the perfect place to play our final show.
“We couldn’t be more excited to share this special night in London with our UK fans. As the song says, ‘let’s do it one more time’.”
