As a torrential storm washes out Day 3 of the first edition of New Yorkβs new music festival, stranded vehicles leave campers upset. Β Β
The three-day Hudson Project music festival came to an abrupt and early end Sunday as storms with heavy rain raked the concert site. There was a considerable hype around the fresh festival in itβs first year, after pulling in the likes of Kendrick Lamar & Bassnectar in itβs impressive line β up.

Unfortunately, hordes of disappointed electronic fans had to pack their bags as Day 3, along with Bassnectarβs headlining performance, had to be cancelled due to excessive torrential rain that stormed through the camp sites, leaving people and their vehicles stranded. The campsite was completely sabotaged, but a few festival goers decided to kick off their own private party in a sticky mud ridden pool.

As festival organizers struggled to evacuate attendees, many took their outrage to Twitter where they cited other festivals, like last year’s Governor’s Ball, that soldiered on through similar downpours. Β

I’d be so pissed if I was at a festival and it was cancelled because of a little rain. What BS. #TheHudsonProject β Christopher James (@theanimal365) July 14, 2014
Honestly, the first two days were actually pretty good. But Will I ever come back? No. #TheHudsonProject β Lah Lah Lily (@MamaLilDil) July 14, 2014
The festival is going to be providing refunds to the festival attendees, as announced on their Facebook page. A forgettable first edition for a new festival organized on the hallowed Woodstock 94β grounds.
