Toronto's anticipated and record-setting new music venue, Rogers Stadium, made its official debut this weekend, the culmination of a speedy nine months of construction ahead of a stacked inaugural season full of big-name artists. But, as much as the night went off without any major hitches, some guests were left disappointed and even concerned by the end result after months of hype for the temporary attraction. Between photos on social media of what looked to be a stunning sunset from the vantage point of the Rogers Stadium stands, there were grievances about overcrowding, lack of measures in light of the day's extreme heat, inadequate staffing and organization, and other safety concerns. SKZ DID AMAZING IN TORONTO LAS NIGHT BUT ROGERS STADIUM!?? blogTO has reached out to Live Nation and Rogers Stadium for comment on how the first event went, and has not yet received a response at the time of publication.
