Espresso Posted September 4, 2023 Share Posted September 4, 2023 The Electric Zoo Festival reached maximum capacity on Sunday night ‘due to unforeseen circumstances’ and did not let anyone else in for safety reasons. While the festival still went on, many of the people who bought tickets and planned to go were turned away. Some fans did not leave quietly when they got to the gate and were told their ticket wouldn’t get them in. Around 6 p.m. social media videos show fans pushing their way in, rushing the gates, jumping over and crawling through a security checkpoint, then running into the festival. Fans’ disappointment has been building since Friday when day one of Electric Zoo was cancelled – the festival saying it had an issue getting a main stage up because of supply chain disruptions. Then, on Saturday, Day Two started two hours late. ABC NY [Fans who did get in later complained that it took hours to exit the venue after being funneled into a narrow fenced-in area. City officials canceled the annual Labor Day weekend event on its second day in 2013 after suspected drug overdoses killed two and left four in critical condition. Attendance last year was 107,000.] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
