The decision was made public this June 6th, just minutes before doors were set to open. The organization pointed directly to the Valencia City Council and the management of the City of Arts and Sciences, arguing that the suspension was not voluntary but a direct consequence of volume limitations derived from a court ruling on noise pollution.

The conflict escalated during the first day, when hundreds of attendees expressed their dissatisfaction with whistles and shouts over the low volume of the concerts. The situation even interrupted some performances, forcing one of the artists to address the audience to explain the technical difficulties.

According to the event organizers, since the ruling was issued on March 25th, they tried to find alternatives, such as moving to other locations, without success. They also lamented the lack of dialogue with the council to find solutions that would allow cultural activity to coexist with the rest of the neighbors.

For her part, the mayor of Valencia defended the application of the restrictions, recalling that the administration is obliged to comply with the judicial resolution that supports the residents in the area. The organization confirmed that it will proceed with the refund of ticket prices and part of the season passes.
