After extensive deliberation and close monitoring of the local landscape, we believe that moving the festival to a later date is the most responsible course forn our community, artists, partners, and audience,” the EFMF team said in a statement emailed to media on Tuesday, September 16.“The postponement follows a convergence of political instability, economic uncertainty, and climate-related concerns that have directly affected operational capacity and planning. Despite these challenges, EFMF reaffirmed its commitment to delivering a transformative music experience. Organizers are now targeting the first quarter of 2026 for the festival’s relaunch,” it added.WEU assures all ticket holders will receive full refunds, with detailed instructions to be released shortly through EFMF’s official channels.“Our team is working diligently behind the scenes to ensure that when EFMF returns, it will be stronger, more inclusive, and more impactful than ever. We remain committed to transparency, collaboration, and artistic excellence,” they added.The full announcement was uploaded on their <a href="https://www.instagram.com/p/DOp-GNuEsu-/">official social media channels</a>.“Once plans for the Q1 2026 relaunch are finalized, we look forward to reconnecting and sharing the details with you,” Joanna Mejia, one of the EFMF communications officer, told ABS-CBN News.“The EFMF team expressed gratitude to supporters, partners, and fans for their continued patience and trust, promising regular updates as preparations for the 2026 event move forward,” she added.The intended guest performers are the Eraserheads’ “batch mates” from the 1990s band boom while some are under the management of Offshore Music, which main composer and guitarist Ely Buendia co-owns. As earlier announced, the bands were: The Itchyworms, Moonstar88, Basti Artadi, Dong Abay Music Organization, Imago, Blaster, Carousel Casualties, ALYSON, Party Pace, Pinkmen, Sa Vie and General Luna.Buendia, meanwhile, continued to perform as a solo act. He is recently doing a provincial promotional tour for his recent album, “Method Adaptor.” Drummer Raimund Marasigan does the same with his other bands, Sandwich, Pedicab and Squid9. With Pedicab, a new single titled “Weaponized” has just been released after two years since “Balyena” in 2023.Bassist Buddy Zabala still performs with Moonstar 88. Marasigan and Zabala, with lead guitarist Paulo Agudelo, occasionally perform songs by the Eraserheads with their other band, UltraCombo.Guitarist Marcus Adoro, since the pandemic years, has busied himself as a painter.
