Kings Of Leon have been forced to postpone their concert at the O2 Arena in London tonight (December 21) due to fire.

In a statement, organisers said there was “insufficient time” to ready the venue following a fire on one of the band’s tour buses this morning.

“We are sorry for the inconvenience and we will announce a new date shortly,” the statement added.

Around 60 firefighters tackled the blaze, which started shortly after 8am (GMT).

The buses were contained within the loading bay. No injuries have been reported.

Kings Of Leon’s gig was due to end their UK tour.
