Last night got a little too wild at the PNE Amphitheatre in Vancouver after fans got angry when the BreakOut Festival headliner, Lil Baby, didn't perform.

Videos on TikTok, Twitter and Snapchat show angry festival-goers destroying property during the hip-hop music festival. The PNE told Narcity that the Vancouver Police Department responded to the scene and "prevented the situation from becoming much worse."

The PNE also said that fans "turned their disappointment into anger" after the announcement that the festival's main act would not be performing.

BreakOut Festival wrote in a tweet that the rapper Lil Baby was "too sick to perform."

The organizers added that there was "significant damage" to the PNE Amphitheatre as well as parts of Hastings Park.

"At this time, our first priority is for the safety and wellbeing of our staff as many were deeply affected by the reaction of guests and behaviour that ensued," they added.

PNE also posted a statement on their Instagram story on Monday.

People shared videos of the chaos to social media.

In the videos, you can see people dismantling a tent and destroying other property.
