Woodstock 50 festival has officially been canceled, according to statement issued by organizers.
Organizers issued a statement on Wednesday announcing that the festival, scheduled for Aug. 16-18, has officially been canceled.
Lang explains that after organizers lost their license to stage the event as originally planned in Watkins Glen, New York, and couldn't secure a permit in Vernon, New York,"we looked for a way to do some good rather than just cancel." "We released all the talent [from their contracts] so any involvement on their part would be voluntary. Due to conflicting radius issues in the D.C. area, many acts were unable to participate and others passed for their own reasons," Lang added.
