DJ Khaled will no longer be playing at Wireless festival despite being due to headline the closing night of this year’s festival.

The DJ’s decision to pull out of performing is said to be down to get there, as Wireless tweeted he was caught up with ‘travel issues.’

But organisers promised ‘something special that won’t disappoint’ in his place.

Maybe there was something up with his private jet as the star appears to still be on holiday.


Fans were quick to notice that DJ Khaled’s social media was telling a different story to him just having ‘travel issues’ – just yesterday he was hanging out in an infinity pool with his son, writing: ‘Still on vacation!!!’

Rumour has it that the ‘something special’ organisers have referred to might be a surprise performance from Drake.



According to reports, the 31-year-old was meant to be joining Giggs and DJ Khaled at the annual festival, but now perhaps he’ll headline instead.

‘Drake is known for his surprise appearances, having performed at the Reading festival and London’s Xoyo last year,’ an insider claimed. ‘But he’s now planning his biggest surprise to tie in with the launch of his latest album. Giggs and DJ Khaled have asked him to come out on stage with them on Sunday as they bring the festival to a close.’
