The Drake-curated OVO Fest in Toronto have announced that they’ve been forced to scrap the first day of this weekend’s event.
The two-day festival was initially scheduled to run from 4-5 August, with the first day starring both James Blake and Frank Ocean.
Now, with Frank Ocean suffering a torn vocal chord, the Sunday leg has been cancelled altogether, with Blake pushed back to the Monday along with headliner Drake himself.
The fourth addition of OVO Fest is to take place at the city’s Molson Canadian Amphitheatre on Monday (5 August).
