The heat is cited as the likely trigger, the reporter said, though an official statement from CONMEBOL is still pending. “CONMEBOL must explain,” the source added.
According to the same journalist, Boca received a direct CONMEBOL directive forcing a pause on any artist deals. “Boca was told the federation is seriously considering scrapping musical shows,” the source confirmed.
For now uncertainty reigns. No final decision yet, the reporter stressed: “At this moment there’s no show.” Yet the verdict could flip in the coming hours. In my view, dropping the shows could dull the event’s atmosphere.
The Sudamericana final ranks among the continent’s marquee fixtures, and pre‑match concerts usually enrich the stadium vibe for fans.
