Mustang Music Festival Canceled Due To Hurricane Threat

The 6th annual Mustang Music Festival was scheduled to take place October 7 – 8 in Corolla, North Carolina. With the potential of Hurricane Matthew bearing down on the area where the festival is held, organizers have decided to cancel the event.

Here’s the official statement from the Mustang Music Festival Facebook page:

It is with immense sadness we have to cancel the 6th Annual Mustang Music Festival. After sleepless nights, consultations from local and regional officials, we have determined that proceeding further in our production is hazardous and unsafe for our patrons, crew and performers. While the forecast for Hurricane Matthew has improved over the past few hours, there is still much uncertainty to its effects. North Carolina is under a State of Emergency and evacuations of the the North Carolina coast are still possible. All tickets purchased with a credit card will be refunded over the next 10-12 business days. Tickets purchased locally with cash will be refunded at the point of purchase beginning Tuesday, October 11.

A major thank you to everyone that worked on trying to make my dream a reality. I’m hopeful to be able to recover from this setback and try again in the future.

moe., Lettuce, G. Love And Special Sauce, Yonder Mountain String Band, Fruition and the Mike Dillon Band were just a few of the acts set to perform at this year’s Mustang Music Festival. As noted above, festival organizers will provide full refunds to ticketholders.
