A concert headlining singer Akon had to be canceled after the event’s outdoor pavilion caved in at Atlanta’s Emory University Clairmont Road Campus on Thursday.

Crew workers set up the stage for the school’s annual fall festival which was expected to accommodate Akon and his band members Thursday evening.

The stage’s canopy then collapsed leaving at least three workers injured. The individuals were treated at a local hospital. No word on the extent of their injuries. No rescheduled date for the event has been announced yet.
