Information on refunds to follow.


Sorry to be the bearers of bad news this Saturday morning, but after last night's crowd trouble the organisers of BLOC 2012 at the London Pleasure Gardens have decided to cancel this weekend's festival.

The following statement appeared on the Bloc Facebook page earlier this morning:

"By now everyone will have heard that Bloc 2012 was closed due to crowd safety concerns.

We are all absolutely devastated that this happened, but the safety of everyone on site was paramount.

Given the situation on the ground, we feel that it was the right decision to end the show early.

Bloc will not open on Saturday 7th July so please don’t come to the site.

Stand by for full information on refunds".
