What's going on?

There’s still so much time. A lot of festivals in early summer only announcer recently and CM end of the Summer.

End of the Road and Green Man yet to announce anyone also.

But the tickets have been taken off sale. I think there's a problem with the location. 

I got this email from Google maps the other day from a review I left after the first year. When I looked all reviews are gone.

Yeah I think you’re right. Though my point stands, I don’t think they will hurt ticket sales to announce in February when the event is almost in September.

Me voy a expresar en español,en inglés me cuesta más...

 

En Málaga hay fuertes rumores que el festival no se va a hacer,al menos en mijas ,el cambio de alcaldía tiene la culpa. La organización dijo hace 3 semanas que festival habrá,pero tampoco concretó en Mijas,a mí me parece que habrá cambio de ubicacion.

 

No es normal en España meterte en febrero sin ningún grupo confirmado y sin nada de información,a ver qué pasa próximamente...

It 100% will when so many other fests have announced and people are flying from abroad

Especially given the lineup would likely mirror Kaloramas.

They wouldn't take tickets off sale without very good reason to, its free money that sits generating interest

I think they will be just looking to secure a new venue. They will already have a line up in place with most already doing Kalaroma

[Drums Please Fab]

I don't know what to do now......I had been waiting for this as I was "sure" that LCD Soundsystem would be playing.

They are the band I want to see most this summer, if Mijas doesn't announce soon I will have to pull the trigger on another festival. Presumably Kalorama.

[josemalaga]

I asked the organización today if there would be cala Mijas festival,anda their answer was yes

Not really. It's the same promoter. Arcade Fire are playing Bilbao BBK Live and doing a separate gig in Seville as well.

[xxialac]

Yeah, I take it to mean they will be playing CM.

4 days away from Mijas though. Not sure there is the appetite for them to play at both from paying punters.

[joselito]

The Smile have a date in Valencia on 28th too.

A tonne of festivals are announcing in the next week.

You have to feel Cala Mijas will need to be amongst them or people will spend their summer festival cash on other options...

Since I was at the concert last night I'll share this 

[xxialac]

I would have been shocked if The Smile weren't lined up given Kalorama but good to have confirmed.

Doesn't mean anything in terms of whether it's going ahead though really.

[Drums Please Fab]

Oh The Smile....Thats cool...fingers crossed it goes ahead.
