The British rock band Muse is postponing a concert in Istanbul, Turkey, reports BBC.

The reason is the allegations against the concert organizer DBL Entertainment. The company's owner has expressed criticism of the protests in Istanbul.

Hundreds of thousands of people have protested on Istanbul's streets since the city's mayor Ekrem Imamoglu was imprisoned in March.

Recently, Ane Brun cancelled a concert in Istanbul arranged by DBL Entertainment.

The same organizer has also booked Robbie Williams and Muse. Many have urged the artists to also cancel their concerts.

Muse writes now on X that after careful consideration and after listening to their fans, they are postponing the concert until 2026 to ensure that DBL Entertainment is not involved.
