NEW YORK’S MUSIC TO KNOW FESTIVAL AXED
A New York music festival set to feature indie rockers VAMPIRE WEEKEND and BRIGHT EYES has been cancelled.
The MTK: Music To Know event on Long Island was due to be held on 13 and 14 August (11) but it’s been scrapped due to poor ticket sales.
A statement from organisers reads, "Despite our unique vision and arranging a world-class lineup, ticket sales were not adequate to allow the event to continue." Former child stars-turned-fashion moguls Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen had also signed up to run a pop-up boutique on site.
