CBC23-07-2025
The City of Charlottetown has revoked the permit for an upcoming concert by controversial U.S. Christian musician Sean Feucht that was set to take place on land owned by the city.
"After consultation with Charlottetown Police Services, the City of Charlottetown has notified the organizer… that their permit has been revoked due to evolving public safety and security concerns," the city said in a news release Wednesday afternoon.
"Public safety remains the city's top priority."
Feucht, a rising star in the MAGA movement, is a missionary and author who has spoken out against the 2SLGBTQ+ community, abortion rights and critical race theory on his website. He had been scheduled to perform Thursday at Confederation Landing on the Charlottetown waterfront — days before the city marks Pride Fest 2025.
Tuesday, the city distanced itself from the scheduled performance, saying it was not a "city-sponsored event" and that it was limited in restricting access to public spaces "from a legal standpoint."
In that release, the city said it wanted to be clear in its full support of the 2SLGBTQ+ community.
