KUALA LUMPUR, Aug 20 — Video Games Live, which was slated to take place at the Putra Indoor Stadium in Kuala Lumpur at the end of August, has been postponed.

Organiser 11 To 11 Events Sdn Bhd issued a statement to say that the concert will take place on February 27, 2016 instead.

A new venue will also be announced at a later date, the company added.

11 To 11 Events also stated that they would get in contact with ticket holders on how to proceed with the confirmation of their new tickets, as well as apply for refunds, should they be unable to attend due to the change in dates.

The official statement is as follows:

“Video Games Live, scheduled for August 29 at Putra Indoor Stadium, is regretfully postponed to February 27, 2016 with a change in venue that will be announced within three weeks. The late postponement is primarily due to the organiser’s trying to mitigate the situation caused by the numerous events leading to Merdeka 2015, which includes the Bersih 4.0 rally, scheduled for August 29 and 30, with a likelihood of it being held at Bukit Jalil. Taking this and the concerns of ticket holders, parents and partners over these uncertainties, and to prioritise the comfort of all concertgoers, we have come to the difficult decision of postponing VIDEO GAMES LIVE. We sincerely apologise to all Video Games Live fans who have bought tickets and looking forward to the show. We will be get in touch, and inform all ticket holders on how to proceed with confirmations for your new tickets, venue and how to apply for refunds. As a token of our appreciation we are giving away one (1) Limited edition band to each ticket holder that does not apply for a refund. Watch out for the email.”
