Made in America has been canceled.
The annual two-day music festival held on Philadelphia’s Benjamin Franklin Parkway during Labor Day weekend will not happen this year, according to the festival’s official channels. The festival, founded by Jay-Z, has been a Philly fixture since 2012.
Organizers released a statement Tuesday citing “severe circumstances outside of production control.” “This decision has been difficult and has not been made lightly nor without immense deliberation,” the statement read.
All tickets will be refunded and, according to the group’s statement, the festival will return in 2024.
