Shows scheduled for May 17 and 18 at Brooklyn Steel have been called off and ticketholders will receive a refund. The previously scheduled screening of Mulholland Drive on May 18 at Music Hall of Williamsburg will continue as planned.

Garbage, Phoebe Bridgers, Wye Oak, and more were slated to perform. Yesterday (May 10), Brooklyn Vegan reported that the event had been called off, stating that the festival and Bowery Presents issued the following joint letter to ticketholders:

We’re sorry to report that the two concerts on May 17 and 18 at Brooklyn Steel in partnership between Festival of Disruption and The Bowery Presents have been canceled due to circumstances beyond our control. The previously announced screening of Mulholland Drive on May 18 at Music Hall of Williamsburg is sold out and will go on as planned. If you purchased a 3-event pass, you will receive a refund for the price of the two performances plus fees on your credit card statement in 7-10 business days. Your original ticket to the screening will still be valid at Music Hall of Williamsburg.
