SAN DIEGO, Nov. 13, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Johnson Fistel, LLP is investigating potential claims on behalf of Live Nation Entertainment, Inc. ("Live Nation" or the "Company") (NYSE: LYV) against certain officers and directors of the Company.
On November 5, 2021, at least nine people were killed and hundreds more injured during a stampede and "crowd crush" that occurred during "Astroworld Festival 2021," an event featuring musician Travis Scott as its headlining performer. Astroworld Festival 2021 was organized and promoted by Live Nation, which has promoted prior Astroworld festivals, including in 2019, where several people were injured similarly during Travis Scott's performance.
Since the catastrophe, dozens of lawsuits have been filed against Live Nation, many of which allege that the concert organizers created conditions that caused the stampede and crowd crush and failed to provide proper safety planning, security, and medical personnel.
Following this news, the Company's share price closed down 5.38% on November 8, 2021, and continues to decline further as more details of the event come to light. As of November 12, 2021, Live Nation's share price has fallen by 9.2% from its high of $123.80 on the day of the event.
