For the last six years, JAY-Z has held his Made In America concert at Ben Franklin Parkway in Philadelphia.
It will play there again this Labor Day, but no more after that.
Roc Nation officials say they only learned about the city's decision to cancel the concert after 2018 when they read an article about the move on Billy Penn yesterday.
Here's what the website wrote about the city's reasoning for ending MIA at its current location.
The city’s official view on MIA, as relayed via email, is that when it first started in 2012, the fest provided a welcome boost on an otherwise slow weekend. But six years later, tourism has grown, so “the need for an event of this scale at this location may no longer be necessary.”
The city says it spent $1.1 million in services, including police overtime, EMS coverage, cleanup and general Parks & Rec support, to hold the 2017 MIA. Roc covered $600,000 of that. Roughly 140,000 people attended the event last year.
Roc Nation has vowed to find another location near Philadelphia for the 2019 show and beyond, and JAY-Z fumed at Philadelphia Mayor Jim Kenney's decision to evict in an open letter published on Philly.com.
