The Post has reached out to the Philadelphia Police Department, Live Nation, and Lange for further comments.
The Weeknd “After Hours til Dawn” tour features the singer’s best songs from his fourth and fifth studio albums, 2020 “After Hours” and “Dawn FM,” released earlier this year.
The tour was originally scheduled to begin at the Rogers Center in Toronto, but the concert was postponed due to a power outage at Rogers, making the Philadelphia Show the opening party.
Fans of The Weeknd have waited long for his tour, which was due to kick off in 2020 but has been postponed twice due to the pandemic.
