The organizers of the festival, who took to their Instagram page on Tuesday to make this announcement, stated that: ‘Due to severe outside of production control, the 2023 Made In America festival will no longer be taking place. This decision has been difficult and has not been made lightly nor without immense deliberation.
‘Made In America has a legacy of delivering exceptional experiences for music fans and concertgoers, and it is our commitment to always deliver a top-tier festival experience.’
