Clockenflap festival in Hong Kong, one of the most high-profile
music events in Asia, has been cancelled because of the continuing
protests in the city.
In a statement, festival organisers said: “Due to the escalation in the crisis this week, and the uncertainty this creates for the coming weeks, Clockenflap 2019 will be cancelled. We still believe in bringing people together in positive ways, and will continue to unite people through the power of music and arts.” Refunds are promised for ticket holders within four weeks.
