LIDO Festival Cancels Shows, Reschedules Maribou State

0:00On April 10th, Lido Festival just drops some tough news on their Victoria Park shows. They're canceling the Seamat and Bombay Bicycle Club headline gigs outright, while pushing the Maribu State set to Monday, August 31st. This all comes down to protecting the park's ground conditions after heavy use. The announcement hit yesterday, Thursday, August 9th. Organizers couldn't find new slots for the two canceled shows because of booking clashes, so full refunds are on the way for those ticket holders. Last summer's All Points East events ran during a brutal drought, kicking up major dust problems that got a lot of attention. Even with promoter AEG receding and fixing things up since then, experts say the grass needs more time to bounce back fully. Fans are understandably bummed, but the focus is on keeping the park healthy long term. Ticket info and refunds are easy to access through the festival's links for each artist. With summer wrapping up, keep an eye on Lido for their rescheduled Maribu State vibe. Hopefully, the ground's ready to rock by then.
