Six Flags "Goth on the Mountain" Event Cancelled
A23 is sad to announce that due to circumstances beyond our control the Goth on the Mountain event in Valencia, CA on September 16th has been cancelled. Here is a statement from the organizers: 

"It is with great sadness and disappointment that our Goth on the Mountain event has been canceled. We have worked tirelessly to make this event a success, but we, unfortunately, did not receive the same effort from the park. We had an agreement with the park that was negotiated months ago but they could not comply with the terms of the agreement. We tried extremely hard to modify the agreement with the park to keep the event alive but they could not meet our terms such that it would have been too much of a detriment to Inland Empire Goth and to our members. In the last few hours, we had to make the difficult decision to cancel the event so that we can mitigate our losses. We will be reviewing our options for recovering losses from the park and thank you all for your understanding. 

We thank you immensely for your patience and understanding at this time. We know you have questions. Please give us time to provide you with accurate information and answers. We know you deserve it and it is our utmost desire to provide you with what you deserve. As soon as we have information we will share it. Remember, you are our main priority at this time and our goal is to honor and respect this subculture we love so very much. We will be working on planning other events for you in the future. 

On behalf of the Goth on the Mountain staff, entertainment, and volunteers we are very grateful for all the support and excitement our community showed for us and this event. It empowers us to want to continue to strive to bring this community what it deserves. We are dedicated to providing high-quality events to the community we love so much, to a community that deserves a safe space and a supportive atmosphere. The Gothic subculture has endured for decades and we will continue to prevail. "
