Pharrell Williams has announced the postponement of his Something In The Water festival, initially scheduled for next month, to spring 2025.
This unexpected decision came just hours after tickets went on sale, leaving fans disappointed and seeking refunds.
Pharrell shared the news on the festival’s social media accounts, explaining that the event “just isn’t ready yet.” The festival was planned for October 12-13 but has now been moved to April 2025. Tickets had been available to Virginia residents for only a few hours before the announcement.
The postponement caught many fans off guard. Hundreds were in line to buy tickets when the news broke. “I was frustrated because it literally happened as I hit pay and the money left my account,” one fan expressed. Pharrell assured that those who purchased tickets will be refunded and will have “first access” to new dates.
