The Festival Internacional de Benicàssim (Festival) wants to clarify that the account of events leading up to the cancellation of Morrissey’s concert that previously was posed on this site, was due to the excess of care in defense of our interest provoked by Sanctuary Artist Management official statement.

The above mentioned account was not trying to question ever the professionalism either of the Artist or of his Management. The Festival apologizes should any of the relation of events included in our website have caused any misunderstanding between the Festival and the Artist and his Management.

The Festival did everything possible in order to Morrissey’s concert was celebrated. On the other hand, the Festival declares and recognizes that both the Artist and Sanctuary Artist Management deeply regretted the inability of Morrissey to appear and both made every possible effort to fulfill with their compromise with us.

Finally, the Festival regrets the causes that made impossible the Artist to appear at Benicàssim venue and declares that we would like to count on Morrissey in our future Festival editions.
