Vineland launch pushed back a year
Austin’s C3 Presents, which produces Lollapalooza, ACL Fest and the Big State Festival, will have one less extravaganza to worry about this summer. The Vineland Festival, set for Aug. 8-10 in New Jersey, will now kick off in 2009, it was announced Friday. A press release from co-promoters Festival Republic (which puts on Glastonbury in Europe) and C3 attributed the delay “to the overall festival traffic in the northeast and big bands touring through this area at the same time.”
Pollstar reports that two other big festivals- Virgin Fest near Baltimore and an East Coast Coachella spinoff - are planned for the same weekend that Vineland was going to take place. Wonder which one got Radiohead?
