Tyler, the Creator’s Camp Flog Gnaw Carnival, which was originally planned for Nov. 15-16, announced that the two-day festival has been postponed to next weekend, Nov. 22-23, due to a heavy rainstorm hitting the Dodger Stadium grounds in Los Angeles.
With many festival goers coming from outside of Southern California already in the area, they may be wondering: what now?
Here is what you need to know about Camp Flog Gnaw’s postponement and how you can get a refund through AXS.
Camp Flog Gnaw’s Statement
In a statement posted on Instagram, Tyler said, “Due to the fact this storm became an atmospheric rain torrential downpour, we had two choices: cancel or move to next weekend. We chose the latter. We understand this is not ideal, so we will offer refunds. For everyone else, we will see you next weekend.”
Wristbands tied to the festival have already been reregistered, but if you can not go, you are entitled to a refund.
Additionally, Clairo, Don Toliver, Men I Trust, Sombr, TEMS, and The Alchemist will not be performing next weekend.
How to Get a Refund
AXS has started to send out emails to people who purchased tickets for the festival with instructions on how to request a refund. However, if you originally purchased your tickets from AXS Official Resale, all sales are final, therefore you may not get a refund. However, you may be able to resell your tickets unless restrictions apply.
If you purchased from another third party, it is very important to go back to the original point of purchase to receive assistance.
The deadline to request a refund from AXS will be Tuesday, Nov. 18, at 5 p.m. PST. Once a refund is requested, it may take up to 30 business days to process your refund.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
Can trip insurance cover festival tickets?
Yes, trip insurance can cover your prepaid, nonrefundable expenses if your travel plans are canceled, delayed, or interrupted, including:
- Your ticket to Camp Flog Gnaw
- Your flight to Los Angeles
- Hotels or accommodations
- Prearranged transportation, such as shuttle services
- Non-refundable activities and bookings outside of the event
Can I purchase trip insurance after the festival was postponed?
If you decided to purchase trip insurance after the festival’s announced postponement, your trip insurance plan will most likely not protect you. Generally, trip insurance covers “unforeseen events,” so it is important to purchase trip insurance beforehand in order to get coverage.
If you have any additional questions about trip insurance and its coverage, our team of licensed insurance specialists can help guide you through the process of choosing a plan and clarify what’s included.
How does Cancel For Any Reason (CFAR) insurance work?
Most trip insurance policies will offer an add-on called Cancel For Any Reason (CFAR), which can give you a greater peace of mind and flexibility for your trip. Cancel For Any Reason (CFAR) coverage is an optional add-on to a travel insurance plan that allows you to cancel your trip for reasons that are not listed under standard trip cancellation benefits. That means, you can cancel your trip for *literally any reason*, and get reimbursed for up to 75% of your prepaid, non-refundable trip costs.
When should I buy trip insurance?
For maximum coverage benefits, purchase trip insurance as soon as possible after making your initial trip payment. Many time-sensitive benefits such as Cancel For Any Reason (CFAR) are only available if you buy within 14-21 days of your initial trip deposit.
