Travis Scott Wants Out of Astroworld Lawsuits, Arguing Safety Was Not His Responsibility

With the first trial looming this spring, Scott's attorneys say he's not legally liable for injuries and deaths at the 2021 music festival.

Travis Scott is asking to be dismissed from the sprawling litigation over the 2021 disaster at the Astroworld music festival, arguing that safety and security at live events is “not the job of performing artists.”

More than 2,500 people have sued over Astroworld, which left 10 dead and hundreds injured after a crowd crush during Scott’s Nov. 5 show. They claim Scott (real name Jacques Bermon Webster II), Live Nation and other organizers were legally negligent in how they planned the event, and are collectively seeking billions in damages.
