The 2009 Langerado Music Festival has been canceled. The organizers explained:

Langerado's independent local promoters, faced with a very tough decision in a dismal economy, cancelled the 2009 event only after every possible option was exhausted.

As Langerado Co-Promoter Ethan Schwartz explains, "Langerado has always put the fan experience first. Unfortunately, during these difficult economic times, and facing a first year in a new venue, it's become apparent that we cannot execute a production that lives up to the high standards of our past events. Putting Langerado on hold was the toughest decision we have ever had to make. We are very grateful for the support of the greater-Miami community and the music community during this difficult time.

The initial lineup was announced in December and the event was supposed to feature Flogging Molly, Bad Brains, Against Me!, Gaslight Anthem, Aggrolites and others.
