the LCD Soundsystem-curated Beach Vibes fest has been canceled

Beach Vibes, that three day destination festival in Riviera Maya, Mexico that was curated by LCD Soundsystem, and featuring Hot Chip, Run the Jewels and more, has been canceled. Official statement:

Beach Vibes, a destination event produced by CID Presents, has been canceled. The event was originally slated for January 27 – 29, 2017 in Riviera Maya, Mexico.

The event was not coming together in the way that it was envisioned, and all parties have agreed that putting on an event that is less than 100% would be a disservice to the fans and bands alike. Therefore, canceling the weekend-long event is in the best interest of all involved.

Fans who purchased all-inclusive packages will be refunded in full, including related airfare expenses, and will receive direct communication from CID Presents in the coming days.

Bummer. LCD Soundsystem, who just played the private opening of PepsiCo’s posh Kola Klub in NYC, also canceled some European dates to work on their new album.
