Peso Pluma is canceling his scheduled concerts in Tampa and Miami in the aftermath of Hurricane Helene and Milton. In a press release Friday, the musician’s team announced that he would no longer be performing at the shows next week, and that Peso would be donating to relief funds.
“[We] stand in solidarity with those affected by the recent hurricanes that impacted the state,” read the statement. “In addition, with his label Double P Records and management Prajin Parlay Inc., Peso has donated funds to local hurricane relief organizations.”
Peso Pluma was set to perform at Tampa’s Amalie Arena on Oct. 16 and at Miami’s Kaseya Center on Oct. 17. Tickets purchased through Ticketmaster are set to be automatically refunded. Peso’s statement did not reveal to which organizations he donated to, nor how much he was donating.
“Our entire family at Double P Records/Prajin Parlay Inc. prays for everyone affected to have a speedy recovery,” the statement continued.
Given the canceled shows, Peso’s Éxodo tour is now set to conclude on Sunday in Greensboro, North Carolina. His tour lasted nearly four months, with stops across the United States and several shows in Mexico, including two at Mexico City’s Palacio de Los Deportes.
Peso Pluma has been known for bringing out the biggest stars on his Éxodo tour. Throughout the Éxodo run, Peso has been welcoming guests from across genres including Ice Spice, Eladio Carrión, Saweetie, Becky G, Ty Dolla Sign, El Alfa, Sexyy Red, Don Toliver, and 50 Cent.
Peso’s donation pledge comes just days after Taylor Swift donated $5 million to Feeding America to help those affected by the devastating hurricanes.
So far, at least 16 people have died from Milton, which hit Florida as a Category 3 hurricane on Wednesday. More than 225 people were killed by Helene last month. More than 3 million people are now without power in Western Florida, according to The Associated Press.
