Organizers say the Music Midtown festival in Atlanta won't happen this year. This comes after pressure from gun rights advocates over the event's firearm policy, reports say.
The Atlanta music festival Music Midtown, which draws tens of thousands of concertgoers and blockbuster musicians each year,"will no longer be taking place this year," organizers announced in a tweet Monday.
Though the organizers did not cite a reason for calling off the festival, various media reports citing industry and festival sources said the cancellation was due to a recent interpretation of Georgia's gun law, which permits firearms in public spaces, including parks.Weapons and explosives of any kind are prohibited at the festival, according to its website.
