Planned on Sunday 5 February, performance of Rossini's Petite Messe Solennelle will be cancelled as a sign of mourning for the death of over 70 football fans on Wednesday 1 February

Cairo Celebration Choir, soloists and the musical director Nayer Nagui announced cancellation of their concert, Gioacchino Rossini's Petite Messe Solennelle, previously planned to take place on Sunday 5 February at the Prince Mohamed Ali Palace.
