The xx's Night + Day Festival Is Cancelled

The xx's Night + Day festival booked for 14th-16th July and featuring performances from Sampha, Floating Point, Jagwar Ma, Earl Sweatshirt, Robyn and more has been cancelled for environmental reasons. 

The Reykjavik Grapevine published a statement from the festival detailing issues the festival has faced with their chosen location; the iconic Skógarfoss waterfall in southern Iceland. The venue has now been listed as an endangered area and organisers have been unable to find a suitable replacement nearby. 

Those that have purchased tickets will receive a full refund. 

Read the full statement below:

"We regret to announce that Night + Day Iceland will not be going ahead.

The location for the festival at Skógafoss has recently been added to the Environment Agency of Iceland’s list of endangered areas and there is simply not enough time for the promoters to ensure that the event will have no impact at all on the site. The promoters have been working non-stop to secure another location but regrettably there is nowhere suitable that can host the festival with such short notice. Full refunds including all booking fees will be issued to all ticket holders directly from the ticket agency with whom you purchased asap.

Please allow 5 working days for your refund.

For any further enquiries relating to flights, accommodation & transfers that have already been booked and will no longer be used, please contact ndiceland@thewarehouseproject.com. This email address will be monitored from 09:00 – 21:00 BST each day and we will deal with all enquiries as quickly as possible.

We do apologise and assure you that refunds will be processed as quickly as possible.

We’ll be refunding the full price of your ticket (face value and booking fee) to the account used at the time of purchase. You should receive the funds within 5 working days.

We’re sorry to be the bearer of bad news!"
