The highly anticipated PLTFRM FSTVL, an electronic music festival in Glasgow, has faced a sudden change of plans. Originally scheduled for the end of June, the festival will now take place in September. This unexpected turn of events has caused disappointment among eager fans and confusion among the organizers.
Known for its unique location under a railway bridge in Tradeston, the Platform Festival, also referred to as PLTFRM FSTVL, has been a staple in the music scene for a decade. This year's edition promised an exciting lineup featuring popular house and techno artists like Bailey Ibbs, Chlär, and Blasha & Allatt. However, the festival's fate took a turn when the council failed to authorize a necessary license on time.
According to the festival's spokesperson, the delay was due to the council's limited resources and their inability to process the application within the required time frame. It was a devastating blow for the organizers who have followed the same procedures for the past 11 years. Despite their efforts and even providing additional documentation, the license could not be obtained in time.
The news came as a shock to not only the organizers but also to the performers and ticket holders. The spokesperson went on to express their frustration and the significant financial and logistical losses that came with this sudden change. However, they assured ticket holders that their tickets can either be refunded or used for the rescheduled dates in September.
In the midst of this disappointment, an after-party called PLTFRM BY NIGHT will still take place at The Ferry and Sub Club on the original June dates. This will provide some solace for those who were eagerly looking forward to the festival.
Unfortunately, PLTFRM FSTVL is not the only festival to face cancellations this summer in the UK. Other events such as Towersey Festival, Challenge Festival, and Glasgow's Riverside Festival have also been called off. In a statement, the organizers of Riverside Festival apologized for the difficult decision to cancel due to lower-than-expected sales and increased costs.
If you were planning on attending PLTFRM FSTVL or any of the other canceled festivals, don't worry, there's always next year. And who knows, maybe the unexpected change of plans will lead to an even better experience in September. In the meantime, if you have a story or any footage from the festival, feel free to share it with us. We'd love to hear from you and celebrate the love for music together.
