“It is our deep regret to inform you all that the festival will be officially cancelled. FULL refunds will be offered…This is not the way we had hoped for things to turn out, and we worked around the clock to prevent such an announcement, however, with the holidays and switching of venues it will not be possible to make this event the success we had hoped for. Full refund information will be provided after the holidays. We do realize this is an EXTREME disappointment to all music fans and as much a disappointment to ourselves.”

 

Sadly, Floridians… we’ll have to wish you peace for the new year from afar. Sorry for any inconvenience.
