Xunantunich Concert Cancelled

The villagers in Succotz have raised an uproar about Xunantunich being shut down for two weeks during the tourist high season - and tonight it seems the Gods of Failed Concert Promotions have heard their cries.

Unofficial, but reliable reports to 7news are that the major international concert planned for December 21st at Xunantunich has been cancelled.

According to our reports, the international promoters who were renting Xunantunich from NICH to hold the concert had to abandon their plans for their own logistical reasons.

The concert was supposed to have major international artists performing for a global audience and was expected to raise significant revenues for NICH.

And so while it wasn't cancelled due to pressure from Succotz - we're sure leaders in that Western Village are happy tonight that there will be no closure.

End of Mayan calendar coincides with aborted Xunantunich concert?

On Wednesday night, we reported that the closure of Xunantunich in the height of the Maya Celebrations was being opposed by tour guides and vendors in Succotz Village. Well, there is some development which indicates that a planned concert at the Mayan site has now been postponed, which means that the site will not have to close in December. Tech Light Group Incorporated, which was to do the lighting for the concert, reports on their Facebook on Wednesday that the postponement is necessary "due to talent issues."
