Stage Screen Collapses at El Tri's Auditorio Nacional Concert With No Injuries

El Tri attributed the failure to a broken chain on supplier‑provided gear.

Overview

  • During “Soy un perro negro y callejero,” a lateral LED screen tilted toward the stage, briefly grazing musicians and emitting sparks, according to eyewitness video.
  • The performance was halted for roughly 20–40 minutes as crews secured the structure, with multiple outlets reporting a pause of about 25 minutes before the show resumed.
  • Technical staff, venue security, the Red Cross and Protección Civil inspected the setup and cleared the concert to continue.
  • In an official statement, the band said no audience members, performers or crew were at risk and emphasized the screen belonged to an external provider.
  • Videos of the collapse circulated widely on social media as Alex Lora addressed the crowd with humor to steady the audience before the music continued.
