Identity Festival: Miami Reschedule Date Canceled

The live electronica and multi-DJ traveling festival was put on hold last monthdue to inclement weather and was officially reported to be finding a rescheduled date. Now the folks at Ticketmaster have informed ticket holders that the Bay Front Park dance music event of the summer will actually be canceled. Coming on the heels of the recent Langerado cancelation, this news is only adding insult to injury for the South Florida music  base.

Two interesting points in this email are the 2-3 week wait for refunds on tickets, and the statement that Identity Festival will be held again next year. Here is the release from Ticketmaster:

Attention ticket holder!

Message sent on behalf of the Klipsch Amphitheater at Bayfront Park in Miami, FL:

We just learned that your upcoming event has been canceled:
Identity w/Kaskade & More
Klipsch Amphitheater at Bayfront Park - Miami
Friday, September 30^th at 1PM

Dear Valued Identity Fan,

Due to Hurricane Irene we were forced to postpone the original date of the Identity show on August 25^th to September 30^th. Unfortunately, we are unable to reassemble the confirmed lineup of a large number of artists from the original date to September 30^th due to prior commitments. As a result the September 30^th show has been canceled. If you did not attend the Tampa Identity show at the 1-800-Ask-Gary Amphitheater on August 24^th, a credit will be processed to your original account within 14 – 21 days. Identity will return, barring no Hurricanes, in 2012. We thank you for your understanding and continued patronage and look forward to seeing you in 2012.

We’ll automatically refund your order, including fees (except UPS and InStore Pick Up, if applicable) to your credit card within 14 – 21 business days.

Thanks for being a fan!
