According to Thai netizens, the Stadium has lowered in quality and is not fit to hold the “BORN PINK” concert. Moreover, as Thailand is Lisa’s home, this choice of venue does not meet the expectations. In addition, the main stage is said to be far from the audience area and not as “grand” as the stages for the previous concert nights in Europe.
