The autumn music festival "Grand Mint Festival" (GMF) has decided to cancel some outdoor performances on the second day of the event due to bad weather and issue full refunds for tickets.
Mint Paper, the organizer, announced via social media today (October 18), saying, "As the adverse weather conditions persist, it is practically nearly impossible to fully deliver the prepared performances," and adding, "Tickets for Day 2 will be fully refunded."
Through an additional notice, Mint Paper stated, "All remaining schedules for today at the 88 Lawn Field outdoor stage have been canceled," and added, "We are currently checking weather conditions for the 88 Lake Waterside Stage and will provide separate guidance as soon as the resumption of performances is decided."
While indoor performances held at the KSPO Dome will proceed as normal, the organizers announced that entry could be restricted due to heavy crowds.
On Day 2 of the "Grand Mint Festival" today, artists including Sunwoojunga, Lee Seok-won, and Shin Ji-hoon were scheduled to perform at the 88 Lake Waterside Stage; Younha, CNBLUE, Roy Kim, and Jung Seung-hwan at the 88 Lawn Field stage; and 10cm x Soran, Thornapple, and N.Flying at the KSPO Dome stage.
The organizers distributed raincoats to the audience and installed tents to shield them from the rain, but persistent rain amid strong winds ultimately disrupted the event's progress.
