Overview
- The New Year’s festival set for December 29–31 was called off following a CECOPAL review despite efforts by the Tavernes town hall to salvage it.
- More than 177 l/m² of rainfall left the concert area and campsite flooded, turning the terrain into impassable mud.
- Bars, staff cabins, dressing rooms, and loading zones were compromised, making three days of work untenable for roughly 150 people.
- Organizers said continuing would be irresponsible given the safety risks for workers, musicians, and the public.
- Tickets will be refunded automatically within a maximum of 15 days, according to the festival’s statement.
