Organisers made a statement, (here), saying, "It is with great sadness that we must announce the postponement of this year’s BL9 Music Weekender which was due to be held at Manchester's Event City over the weekend of June 13/14th until a new date later in the Summer.
We have put every effort into delivering this festival but due to the recent change in venue this has left us with insufficient time to be able to produce what is effectively an entirely different event, so the difficult decision was taken to make the postponement.
We apologise it has taken until now to make this decision but our team have worked tirelessly to try and get everything in place to create a spectacular event for everyone involved, but sadly time just wasn't on our side.
We want all of you that bought tickets to know that, like you, we are completely gutted with this outcome, and we will look to come back bigger and stronger from this. Details of the rescheduled event will be available shortly.
Once again we apologise for this outcome and hope you will still visit our events in the future.
