Astroworld Festival Negligence Lawsuit
Thousands of people attended the Astroworld Festival, where Travis Scott performed with other artists in Houston on November 5th. Many music lovers attended the event with the hopes of an entertaining experience, but on the contrary, attendees were forced to endure a nightmare, as a series of negligent mistakes led to countless injuries and eight fatalities caused by crowd surges. Once the headliner took the stage, the overwhelming force of the crowd pressed forward and caused people to trip, become trampled, and get pressed tightly against one another until breathing became difficult. According to reports, many concert attendees attempted to notify both the performer and event staff about the chaos occurring in the crowd. However, the concert continued on and those injured in the crowd were left to fend for themselves.
There was enough distress in the crowd for the organizers, performers, or venue to recognize their responsibility to stop the concert and address the immediate concerns of attendees. Their failure to do so isn’t just unethical, it’s illegal, and the victims of their negligence deserve justice and for those responsible to be held accountable.
Morgan & Morgan’s lawyers have the necessary experience, resources, and knowledge to hold the negligent venue accountable for their actions and set an example for others to follow in the future.

Astroworld Festival Lawsuit FAQs
What Are Crowd Surges?
This isn’t the first time crowd surges have caused widespread harm. Crowd surges occur when a mass of people suddenly push in one direction and put pressure on the front of the crowd. People who are caught in that pressure are packed tightly against one another, making movement and breathing virtually impossible. Many people believe that trampling is the main cause of harm in crowd surge situations, but it’s actually asphyxiation, as the lack of oxygen and the inability to breathe cause people to lose consciousness in the crowd.
What Caused This Crowd Surge?
Crowd surges can occur at any large-scale event where there are tight crowds. However, this situation was made worse by the inability of the venue and organizer staff to contain the chaotic crowd. The venue was sold out, and the influx of additional attendees who broke through barricades only heightened the risk for injury. The situation was a time bomb, and once it went off, the venue and everyone involved in hosting the event failed to stop the concert and mitigate the harm that was occurring in the crowd.
