Jeez, talk about a letdown…

A TikTokker named Emily posted a video and expressed her disappointment after learning that there was a serious snafu with a festival she’d been planning to attend for a long time.

The festival called Tomorrowland took place in Belgium and Emily wrote in a text overlay, “I leave on Monday and have been looking forward to this trip for 13 years, and have 16k already spent and invested, and now the MainStage is burnt down.”

In the video’s caption, Emily wrote, “I would like to clarify it’s 16k split between 2 people who have saved and waited and worked for this for a long long time.”

Well, that sucks for her…
