Following last week's event
The organisers behind the much-loved dance festival Bloc have went into administration.
An official statement was released on their website: ‘It is with great sadness that we announce Baselogic Productions (who you all know as Bloc) has been placed into administration following the events of Friday evening. The team are working hard with the administrators to investigate the issues that led to the closure of the event and people will be updated as and when we have new information. We ask that you allow the administrators time to conduct a thorough investigation so we can establish the facts".
"Once again we would like to apologise for all of the frustration and disappointment this situation has caused and thank everyone who has supported the team over the years, your continued support means so much to us".
An investigation has also been launched into the utter chaos that ensued on the Friday night, which seen the event shut down early, apparently due to massive overcrowding issues. However, the Metropolitan Police recently blamed the bad weather rather than poor organisational skills.
It is not yet clear whether ticket holders will be reimbursed.
In related news, ticket providers Crowdsurge have posted a statement about last week's events. Explaining their role and exposing a number of facts about the festival, you can read the posting in its entirety on Music Week.
