The concert of DJ Barbara Butch, originally scheduled for September 19 at La Lune des Pirates in Amiens, was cancelled due to concerns about safety and the public's reception. The mayor of Amiens, Frédéric Fauvet, expressed his belief that Barbara Butch should be free to perform in Amiens whenever she chooses and emphasized that questioning freedom of expression is unacceptable. He stated that the city would collaborate with its partners to find an alternative solution, assuring that the government would ensure optimal safety conditions for any future events. La Lune des Pirates, the venue where the concert was to take place, confirmed the cancellation, noting that the conditions for ensuring the safety of attendees and the public's reception were no longer met. Earlier, the mayor had acknowledged that the site's configuration made it difficult to guarantee the event's safety, and that the decision to cancel was based on the principle of realism. Interior Minister Laurent Nuñez criticized the cancellation, insisting that all necessary safety measures had been put in place for the event. Aurore Bergé, the minister responsible for combating discrimination, called the cancellation a "capitulation," arguing that it was unacceptable to remove an artist from the stage due to her Jewish identity and the associated calls for a boycott. The DJ's concert was cancelled following a boycott campaign initiated by the Amiens branch of the France-Palestine Solidarity Association (AFPS), which holds Barbara Butch responsible for signing a statement in support of the Yadan bill. This bill aimed to "fight against new forms of antisemitism" but was later contested and withdrawn. A previous concert by Barbara Butch in Grenoble on July 18 was also interrupted after about twenty minutes due to projectiles being thrown, according to Grenoble city hall, which planned to file a complaint. This event had also faced a boycott call, particularly from the Grenoble branch of La France insoumise.
