Nantes Metal band cancels Istrian Concert Due to Severe Weather in France

February 13, 2026, 06:23:49 – A highly anticipated performance by a Nantes-based metal group at The Factory in istria has been canceled due to severe weather conditions impacting travel across France. The concert, which was sold out, is the latest disruption caused by a major storm system affecting the south-east of the country.

The cancellation stems from a red alert issued in Haute-Garonne, triggered by extreme weather in Toulouse, where the band performed the previous night. This alert has resulted in a complete ban on all traffic, including the band’s transport.

According to a statement posted on the band’s official Instagram account, both their truck and tour bus are currently prohibited from traveling due to the prefectural decree. The band expressed their frustration, stating they are “totally helpless” and currently stranded at a motorway rest area.

Organizers are actively working to reschedule the concert and will announce a new date as soon as possible. However, all previously purchased tickets are being fully refunded and will not be valid for any potential future performance.Updates will be provided through official channels.
