Well, that arcticle is from nearly a month ago...

 

I guess it's indeed a "now or never" type of situation.

Agree. If we get past May, then surely too many people with other plans then.

Quite a lot of money for the local economy at stake. I reckon they'll still green light it.

Yes

[xxialac]

My guess would be that they are using Madrid's interest as leverage to agree a deal with the local authority. Might well work as well..

Electric picnic is playing from the same book. Annoying. Big difference is it's already sold out.

 

I'm sure people need to organise flights and hotels as imagine a fair amount of clients are from overseas

Would be very surprised if it goes ahead this year. Hoping it comes back next year as was a great area for a holiday.

I loved it. Was a vibe.

[xxialac]

It's dead isn't it now? Or at least dead the possibility of having it in Malaga region.

[Drums Please Fab]

Not looking good really.....they only have about 15 weeks to announce it, plan it, sell the tickets, build it etc.

[birchtree29]

It's definetly cancelled. I was in Malaga this time last year and festival poster ads were literally at every bus stop, train station, airport.

Did tickets ever go on sale? You could buy this years Kalorama at last years physically.

What a shambles! Not great for Kalorama either probably that was so closely tied in with it.
