A woman has tragically died after suffering a horror accident at a Robbie Williams concert.

Last week (16 November), the 'Angels' singer took to the Allianz Stadium in Sydney to perform to a crowd of 38,000 fans during the first night of his XXV Tour of Australia and New Zealand.

Tragedy struck, however, after one audience member fell down six rows of seats and suffered serious head injuries before being rushed to the hospital following the show.

The woman, who is believed to be in her 70s, was treated for injuries to her face and head at St Vincent's Hospital in a critical condition where she was placed in an induced coma.

Medical authorities confirmed on Tuesday (21 November) she had sadly died.

It is believed that the elderly woman was up on the upper grandstand level of the Allianz Stadium and was allegedly attempting to climb over seats, rather than use the stairs provided, when she fell at the end of the music concert.

Robbie, 49, has not yet publicly commented on the incident.

Venues NSW confirmed last week (17 November) that there had been a 'serious incident' at the show.

"This is a terribly sad incident and our thoughts and wishes are with the patron and their family during this time," a statement to SkyNews.com.au outlined.

The statement continued: "The patron was attended to immediately by venue staff and a nearby guest who is a qualified medical professional.

"Medics arrived shortly after and the patron was taken from the venue by ambulance to hospital."

At the time, Venues NSW said it was working with police and would provide further updates when more information was available.

The Take That star, who is the subject of a newly released four-part Netflix documentary, is currently set to next hit the stage in Melbourne tomorrow (22 November).

And this wasn't the only tragic concert death this month as last Friday (17 November), a 23-year-old fan died after falling ill at a Taylor Swift concert in Brazil.

The fan, Ana Clara Benevides Machado, was rushed to hospital after seeking help at the Nilton Santos stadium in in Rio de Janeiro, during Swift's Eras Tour before she died. Her official cause of death has not yet been released.

On Sunday (19 November), the 'Cruel Summer' singer performed an emotional song following the death of Benevides.

Tyla has previously reached out to Venues NSW for comment.
