NYE Dance Party Probs

One planned at Sydney’s new Wet And Wild water theme park, after selling 8,700 of 9,000 tickets, canceled six hours before showtime.

Promoters One Cube Entertainment, better known for smaller club nights, blamed “technical production issues.”

The promoter offered an alternate site at a local club (which led to complaints to the Dept. of Fair Trading) and has begun refunding nearly $1 million.

The local council was reportedly concerned about security and traffic management.

Yarra Council in Melbourne is chasing up promoters of a dance party for a A$30,000 ($26,815) cleanup bill.

What was to be a sedate affair at Edinburgh Gardens in the suburb of Fitzroy turned into a disaster after 15,000 people turned up for an illegal rave marketed through social media.
