Skolim concert for children in Inowrocław cancelled
The planned performance by musician Skolim at the ‘Uwierz w Sport’ event in Inowrocław has been cancelled. The event, organized by the ‘Okruszek Szczęścia’ Foundation for children in care facilities, was scheduled for October 30.
The foundation decided to withdraw the invitation following significant criticism from parents, educators, and various organizations regarding the artist's suitability for a young audience. Organizers stated that the decision was made to prioritize the well-being of the participants, noting that while they intended for the performance to be free of profanity and inappropriate content, they respected the concerns raised by the community.
Skolim responded to the controversy via social media, stating that he had sufficient repertoire to select only appropriate songs for a younger audience. He noted that he had already planned to exclude controversial tracks from the setlist to ensure the performance was suitable for children.
