Leonard Cohen will no longer be playing at this year’s Benicassim Festival in Spain, according to a post made on the music legend’s forum.
Site moderator ‘Jarrko’ claims he has received 100% confirmation that Cohen will no longer play the July event - as is currently billed.
Upset fans who have bought tickets to the festival to see Cohen have posted a number of angry responses, while others have been in touch with Benicassim direct.
A forum user posted his response from Benicassim, who said that a decision has not been confirmed either way and that the festival is currently in negotiations with Cohen’s people.
Gigwise has contacted Benicassim direct and we are currently awaiting a response from their press people.
