Camp Flog Gnaw Postponed As Torrential Rains Threaten Southern California

Tyler, The Creator’s Los Angeles festival Camp Flog Gnaw, scheduled for this weekend at Dodger Stadium, is being postponed one week in deference to the threat of torrential rains forecast for Southern California.

“Due to weather, Camp Flog Gnaw will now take place November 22 – 23. The wristbands you received are good to go for next weekend. If you can’t attend, refunds will be available. Current passholders will be sent an email with additional information,” read a message posted to the festival’s social media accounts.

The delay prompted some line-up changes — notably, Clairo, whose performance at the festival was to wrap her “Charm” tour. Sombr is also omitted from the new bill.

“An unusually strong storm system will bring widespread rain to the area through Sunday,” the National Weather Service’s Los Angeles Forecast Office wrote in its area forecast discussion message Friday afternoon. “The period of most concern is (Friday) through Saturday night when a large area of heavy rain and isolated but potentially severe thunderstorms will bring a moderate to high risk of significant flash flooding, debris flows, and damaging winds.”

Evacuation warnings were issued ahead of the storm in slide-prone areas, particularly in canyons and near scars from the January wildfires.

Also in Southern California, Orville Peck’s Rodeo, in Pioneertown in the Morongo Basin near Joshua Tree, canceled performances on Saturday, the second of three days of the annual event. Festival organizers were working to reschedule planned performances from Saturday into Friday and Sunday.
