Bryan Adams' gig in Australia cancelled due to sewer fatberg of ‘grease and rags’ A Bryan Adams concert was cancelled in Australia on Sunday after a “large” fatberg caused a public health scare.
“As a priority, Water Corporation crews are working to clear the large blockage of fat, grease and rags, which has caused several wastewater overflows at properties along Wellington Street,” the alert said.
But on Sunday evening, the city’s water corporation said that a large sewer blockage caused by “fat, grease and rags” had caused wastewater overflows at nearby properties.
In a late night update posted on Facebook, the Water Corporation urged people to avoid contact with “pooled water” in Wellington Street, which runs alongside the venue.
“The cancellation of (the) show is bitterly disappointing, and we thank fans for their understanding that while every effort was made for the show to proceed, this matter was outside of the control of Bryan Adams, Frontier Touring and RAC Arena.”.
