The inaugural Echoland Music Festival has been canceled due to “unforeseen circumstances,” organizers announced.
“Echoland Music Festival will no longer take place this year,” the festival said in a statement. “While we have done everything we can do to bring our wild & wonderful world to the banks of the Suwannee River, we have encountered some unforeseen circumstances that we cannot overcome.”
Festival organizers went on to add that ticket-holders who purchased passes through Front Gate Tickets “will be automatically refunded in as little as 30 days.”
