Electric Zoo Family,
On July 9th, New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio announced all large events will be canceled through September 30th. Regrettably, we must stop all the preparations for 2020 Electric Zoo: Supernaturals and reschedule the festival for 2021. We’ve kept hope alive and continued planning and building Electric Zoo until today. While we are heartbroken, everyone's safety is our #1 priority and we understand the Mayor’s decision.
We are all New York tough, let’s be safe and get through these difficult times together. We will return Labor Day Weekend 2021 with the Supernaturals theme and with the biggest line-up in the history of Electric Zoo!
If you are keeping your ticket, you'll recieve a $50 credit on your 2021 wristband to use for food, drinks and merchandise! ($100 for VIP/Platinum) and you don’t need to do anything! We will follow up with you in the coming months with your new ticket and how to receive your credit.
