“With regards to the news that Deja Voom has been canceled due to the global pandemic COVID-19, our team is obviously disappointed – as artists and dreamers we have been working tirelessly this past year to bring you an absolutely magical experience…” He continues, ” But as human beings living through this global emergency; fun, parties, and concerts are the last things on our minds right now. We are viscerally concerned about the health, safety and well-being of our friends and family, as well as our communities and our society at large.“

According to a statement made on social media, they have canceled the event due to concerns about the health, safety, and well-being of their patrons. Lastly, they urge everyone in their community to follow guidelines issued by the Center for Disease Control & Prevention.
Lightning in a Bottle
Unfortunately, California music festival Lightning in a Bottle will not take place this year due to the Coronavirus. They’ve shared out an official announcement about its cancellation. This event was expected to take place this May during Memorial Day Weekend. However, due to the uncertain future in regards to the virus, the festival has taken early precautions. According to their statement, “The health and safety of our attendees, our amazing staff, crew, vendors, artists, and supporters is priority number one. In light of all this, it has become clear that putting on the festival in May is not currently possible.”
Truthfully, the future of Lightning in a Bottle is now uncertain. As the announcement states, “Beyond losing the Memorial Day date for LIB 2020, we are unfortunately not able to provide further details on LIB’S future status at this time.
