Concertgoers Furious As Toronto-Area Music Festivals Fall Apart

etcanada.com:

TORONTO — Two Ontario music festivals spiralled into disarray over the weekend, leaving concertgoers fuming and calling for refunds.

Ticket holders for the two-day Kultureland Festival learned on Sunday that the organizers moved the show from its original venue at Markham Fairgrounds to the Ajax Downs Racetrack — a 1/2-hour drive away.

The announcement was made via social media less than an hour before showtime. Then, several artists on the Kultureland lineup dropped out of the R&B and Afro-fusion music festival without advance notice, including headliner Jhene Aiko.

Kultureland representatives were not available for comment. Read more: Boots and Hearts festival temporarily evacuated due to severe weather Meanwhile, attendees at Kingston Music Festival in North York, Ont.
