Australia's Soundwave Festival Cancelled Due To Poor Ticket Sales

(TeamRock Radio) Australia's Soundwave festival has been cancelled little more than a month before it was due to get underway. The three-day, three-city event was scheduled to take place in Brisbane on January 23, Sydney a day later and Melbourne on January 26, but promoter AJ Maddah has announced he's pulled the plug due to "poor ticket sales." It'll also not go ahead in 2017, with this year's Soundwave seemingly the event's swan song.

In a series of Twitter posts, Maddah says: "I am devastated to have to announce the cancellation of Soundwave 2016 due to poor ticket sales. I am very sorry. I tried my best.

"Thank you to all the fans, bands and people who supported the event for the last 12 years. I wish we could have ended it on a better note. Great triumph for the internet hate squad and the trolls. Congratulations guys. Only thing is, you are now fast running out of targets." Read more here.
