Prince will not perform in Benidorm; City Hall settles the polemic issue
One of the news of this summer was the possibility that Prince would offer a concert in Benidorm. The news was advertised all over the place and although little by little it started to dilute like sugar in coffee.
Benidorm City Hall still insists that the problem with the cancellation of the anticipated Prince concert is the responsibility of the promoter of the event, Group Dux S.L.
The promoter sent writing to the Consistory where it indicated that, “despite the arduous negotiations so that Prince should act in Benidorm, the artist has decided to postpone his European tour after the concerts celebrated in London “.
The mayor of Benidorm, Manuel Pérez Fenoll, announced last June 8th, in a multitudinous press conference, that municipality of Alicante was going to welcome the only European concert of Prince outside the United Kingdom, and dated the performance for August 25th.
Nevertheless, soon it was proved that there were ticket sales for a Prince concert in London for the same date, and that is when the postponement of the performance promised was announced.
The promoter has admitted that it is “impossible” to bring the artist to Spain “after the commitment that they had acquired to do it “.
Nevertheless, they have added that they have kept negotiations open with the representatives of Prince so that, in case the European tour was resumed and that it included Spain, that Benidorm would be considered.
