It's been revealed that Woodstock 50 has lost its venue.

The proposed return of the legendary festival franchise at Watkins Glen International in upstate New York across August 16th to 18th will no longer go ahead.

“Watkins Glen International terminated the site license for Woodstock pursuant to provisions of the contract,” the venue said in a statement. “As such, WGI will not be hosting the Woodstock 50 Festival.”

It's the latest issue for the proposed return of the legendary festival franchise. Back in April, the festival's former financial backer pulled out of the festival, claiming that it was cancelled.

Back in November, Michael Lang mentioned that there was "definite plans" for a 2019 edition. 

Set to return in August, German festival Nachtdigital is to come to an end this summer.

Listen back to Ultra sets from Dog Blood, Armin Van Buuren, Tiësto and more.
