Bankruptcy forces organizers of British Columbia music festival to cancel event
VANCOUVER — The Pemberton Music Festival in British Columbia has filed for bankruptcy and this year’s event has been cancelled.
Those who have already bought tickets to the event that was scheduled to start July 13 may also be out of luck when it comes to getting a quick refund.
A statement posted on the festival website says because the partnership that organizes the festival is in bankruptcy, it has no ability to provide refunds.
It says ticket holders can file a claim as an unsecured creditor, but estimates that process would take several weeks to resolve itself.
