Spring Awakening Music Festival 2017 in Chicago is in full swing but there’s one, very important thing missing — Axwell Λ Ingrosso.
As someone attending the festival this weekend, I was personally bummed out by the cancellation, but it’s even more upsetting to hear the reason why… Sebastian Ingrosso’s car was not only vandalized, but his laptop and passport were stolen before they even had a chance to make it to the States.
Axwell used Spring Awakening as an outlet to get the message out:

The festival itself was quick to recognize the situation and jumped on offering refunds to those with passes to the duo’s afterparty.
This would have been the first opportunity for Axwell Λ Ingrosso to play out their brand new and stunning More Than You Know EP in America and we definitely feel for them. We wish them both the best luck in getting this sorted and making their way back to United States soon for EDC Las Vegas.
Ticket holders for Axwell Λ Ingrosso afterparty at Prysm will be automatically refunded.
