• The decision was announced on Friday, June 20, after consultations between security teams and partners.
• Organisers cited potential unrest from the June 25 demonstrations spilling over as the primary reason, prioritizing the safety of the Blankets community.
• Ticketholders will receive full refunds within 14 working days via their original payment method.
