Pearls are often clutched in the Hamptons, the famous Long Island escape for well-to-do New Yorkers, but perhaps prematurely in the case of a fledgling music festival which just went up in one of its beach towns.
The Palm Tree Music Festival, co-founded by hitmaking DJ Kygo, presented its fourth east coast installment in the town of Southampton last weekend. A media report and some peeved social posts about long shuttle wait times, an alleged lack of water and low-stocked bars popped up amid sets from the likes of Swedish House Mafia and Sofi Tukker.
“We understand that the wait times for the free shuttle buses were long and it was frustrating for the guests affected. We are proud that, even with these transportation delays, all guests were safely off-site within about 90 minutes of the end of the festival,” Michael Diaz, CEO of Palm Tree Crew Holdings, told PvNew. “That said, we hear the complaints, we sincerely apologize for the inconvenience, and we promise it won’t happen again.”
