The UK's Wireless Festival has been called off after rapper Kanye West was blocked from entering the country, following widespread backlash over his past antisemitic remarks.
West, who had been announced as the headline act for the London-based festival scheduled for July, had his ETA withdrawn by the Home Office. According to officials, the decision was made on the grounds that his presence in the UK would not be "conducive to the public good."
In a statement confirming the development, festival organisers said: "The Home Office has withdrawn Ye's ETA, denying him entry into the United Kingdom. As a result, Wireless Festival is cancelled and refunds will be issued to all ticket holders."
