Here’s All the Las Vegas Shows Canceled After Shooting

Following the deadly mass shooting that occurred in Las Vegas on Sunday night, some of the city’s biggest resort groups announced their decision to cancel their Monday shows.

The city’s major attractions and clubs are taking a break from the nonstop nightlife to pay tribute to those who lost their lives and are affected by this attack.

On Sunday night, 64-year-old Stephen Paddock opened fire on the 22,000+ person crowd attending the Route 91 Harvest Festival. Paddock was stationed inside his Mandalay Bay Hotel room on the 32nd floor when the shooting took place.

The most recent statement from authorities has at least 59 people killed and 527 injured.

Due to the tragic event, the following shows were canceled in Las Vegas on Monday.

CW’s iHeartRadio Music Festival Specials

The CW has announced that the network will not air the two-night iHeartRadio Music Festival, which was scheduled for this Wednesday and Thursday. 

The festival was held just over a week ago on September 22 and 23 in Las Vegas. It included daytime festivities at the same location as the Route 91 Harvest Festival, where Sunday night’s shooting took place. The night concerts, held at the T-Mobile Arena, were filmed for a televised CW special. 

“Out of respect to the victims of last Sunday’s terrible tragedy in Las Vegas, and their families, The CW Network and iHeartMedia will be postponing this week’s TV broadcast of the iHeartRadio Music Festival,” the network said in a statement. “New broadcast dates will be announced at a later time.”

For the time being, none of Cirque du Soleil’s employees have been identified amongst the victims.”
