It was a tough night for country music fans at Bingemans.
Last night’s CMT Music Festival was cancelled due to bad weather.
The storms came in around around 7 p.m. and concert goers were told to evacuate the venue.
Fans were then told by event organizers to hang in there while they assessed the situation.
But, by 10 p.m. they cancelled for the night, due to concerns for public safety.
CMT Music Fest released a statement on their website:
“We are disappointed that CMT Music Fest had to be cancelled Friday due to severe weather conditions. In the interest of public safety, this decision was made to protect fans, artists and staff. The festival will continue today, Saturday, July 9, as scheduled.
You’re welcome to return today with your Friday single-day wristband, which will be valid. To attend today, please keep your Friday wristband on. If you have already removed your wristband, please bring your wristband or proof of purchase to the Box Office for a new Saturday wristband.

In the case you’re unable to attend today, you will automatically receive a full refund within 5-10 business days for your Friday single-day wristband through the point of purchase. Please note that tickets cannot be refunded at the CMT Music Fest Box Office at Bingemans.”
