A series of concerts by Kurdish musicians were banned in Turkey. The last artist to be banned was Xecê. She said that her concert in Kars (Qers), which was scheduled for Sunday, was canceled by the governor's office.

The musician's performances in Mûş, Agirî, Erzîrom, Aydın and Iğdır (Reşqelas) had previously been banned. Xecê wrote on X on Saturday that her tour had been prepared for months, halls had been booked for all concerts and tickets had been sold. The governor's office in Kars cited renovation work as the reason for the cancelation.

Other musicians received notice of their concerts being canceled. Among others, Diljen Roni, whose concert scheduled for 6 December in a municipal cultural center in Istanbul-Şişli was also canceled due to "renovation."

Azad Bedran was given a short-term cancelation of a concert hall booked by the Antalya-Muratpaşa district administration for 15 November. Musician Rojda Şenses wanted to perform in Istanbul-Küçükçekmece on 8 November, but the concert was canceled without explanation. The cancelation came shortly after the arrest of Istanbul district mayor Ahmet Özer (CHP). The politician is accused of alleged links to the PKK, and the arrest warrant was justified, among other things, by a concert organized by the Esenyurt district administration, at which Rojda also performed.
