(February 23)
UPDATE: Bridgin’ The Gap was going to be largest indoor Hip Hop festival in Europe, but disappointing ticket sales put an end to that. Organizers have announced that the event has officially been cancelled.
“The event received an enormous amount of attention as well as the support of our (media)partners, it just wasn’t enough to generate sufficient ticket sales. The financial risks have become too great, and we are faced with a difficult decision, however, the only responsible choice is to cancel the event”. said Monique Van Melle, one of the directors.
