Wireless have issued a statement after DJ Khaled pulled out of the Finsbury Park weekender.
It was the news fans had feared for some time – due to play a closing headline set at Wireless, DJ Khaled pulled out citing a "scheduling conflict".
However the American artist's decision to share pool-side pics on his Instagram enraged fans, many of whom made their frustrations known on social media.
Drake stepped in for a quickfire performance, but Wireless have since issued another statement, explaining that they knew DJ Khaled would cancel "for a few months".
Here's what they have to say:
Due to a scheduling conflict related to filming of the The Four, DJ Khaled was not able to commit to perform at Wireless Festival. Although we have known for a few months and tried to make it work, it wasn’t possible.
