Support acts included Coi Leray, Metro Boomin’, Lotto, and other notables from the world of R&B and hip hop.
But in a lengthy statement, organizers of the festival explained why they, begrudgingly decided to call the hold thing off.
It reads, in part, ‘Due to severe circumstances out of production control, the 2023 Made In America festival will no longer be taking place.’
The statement offered fans a sliver of silver lining, saying, ‘We look forward to returning to Benjamin Franklin Parkway and the great city of Philadelphia in 2024’.
If you bought tickets for the 2023 Made In America festival, you can receive a refund where they were purchased.
