The National Holocaust Museum in Amsterdam said it will not cooperate with any visit by Ye, formerly known as Kanye West, while police made two arrests and removed three people carrying Holocaust conspiracy signs during the rapper’s first concert in the Netherlands since 2013 in Arnhem.

Ye performed Saturday night before 40,000 people at GelreDome. Demonstrators gathered outside the stadium with banners highlighting previous antisemitic and pro-Nazi remarks by the American artist. The protest ended around 8 p.m.

Large crowds caused chaos at the stadium entrance as many fans were still outside after the concert had already started. Despite the tensions, the performance itself passed without major incidents, NOS reported.

Police arrested two men on suspicion of disturbing public order. Authorities said they were not demonstrators. Officers also removed three people carrying signs promoting conspiracy theories about the Holocaust. Police said the individuals returned after being repeatedly told to keep their distance.
