Brooklyn Mirage ticket holders left in dark after rescheduled shows as status of venue is in limbo
It's unclear when The Brooklyn Mirage will reopen as frustrated ticket holders are left without answers from the venue and a slate of scheduled concerts is fast approaching. The East Williamsburg open-air concert hall — which has been haunted by the deaths of two ravers — hasn't been given the OK from the city to reopen after it closed for extensive renovations and blew past its planned relaunch on May 1. But the venue suddenly announced it had cancelled its summer reopening after failing to secure the proper city permits, even cancelling a sold-out show just before a DJ was set to hit the stage. Advertisement The last update the venue provided announced shows through Memorial Day weekend would be cancelled and rescheduled for July and August, according to an Instagram post. 5 Brooklyn Mirage ticket holders have grown frustrated at the venue's radio silence since its last Memorial Day announcement about cancelled shows. NY Post 'We apologize to our incredible community of fans, artists, crew members, and staff for the delay. Though the Brooklyn Mirage is opening later than anticipated, we are making great progress towards opening our doors… We are working diligently with the City of New York to make sure we meet all regulations and requirements,' the May 20 announcement said. Advertisement 'If you cannot attend rescheduled shows, you will be given a full refund,' the venue wrote. A month later, ticket holders and rave-goers are still left without answers — even losing out on plane fare to make it to shows that were rescheduled last minute in June. Commenters have flocked to the recent announcement to nag the venue for the reopening limbo. 5 There has been no official update from the Brooklyn Mirage since the venue announced shows through Memorial Day weekend would be cancelled. Advertisement 'Did y'all die?' one commenter wrote. Temple Barros, 47, from the Bronx, has been an 'avid concert goer' at Brooklyn Mirage since 2016 — but said his beloved venue's handling of the reopening has been a 'disappointment.' 'I'm not here to bash it because I've been going to Brooklyn Mirage since 2016. I'm an avid goer every other week … I've been going since they just had the white wall and the umbrella over the DJ booth,' Barros said. 'This year has probably been the biggest disappointment. I had a friend flying from Florida to go see Excision, which they said they would be open that week, and they were not. So he had tickets, flights, and hotels, and I felt bad,' he said. Advertisement Barros had also planned to attend a DJ set by Sara Landry, a Netherlands-based techno artist, on May 1 — which was rescheduled at Knockdown Center that evening. 5 The DJ set of Netherlands-based techno artist Sara Landry was also cancelled at the Brooklyn Mirage due to the failed reopening weekend. instagram/saralandryd 'My friend still complains to this day that she had one eyelash on. We were getting ready to walk out the door, and we all got the text message an hour before we were supposed to go to the show, and that was crazy.' Christina P, from Long Island, also had her cousin fly out from Georgia so they could attend a concert for the American DJ/producer duo 'Two Friends' on June 13 together. After seeing the Memorial Day announcement, Christina grew skeptical that the show would go on. 'I called the venue and asked them what was up so my cousin could cancel her flights. They told me that they didn't have any information, though, that they'd post something on social media and to call back the next week,' she said. 5 A Temporary Place of Assembly certificate, which allows 75 or more people to gather indoors or 200 or more people to gather outdoors, has been requested for the venue's outdoor area. Instagram Just three days before the show, the artist announced the event would be rescheduled for Sept. 12 at Summerstage in Central Park. Advertisement The Brooklyn Mirage eventually reposted the artist's announcement on their Instagram story, according to Christina. 'My cousin was not able to cancel her flight. We were still able to hang out, but now she was out the money for her plane ticket,' she said. 'We just want transparency. The venue could've been more open about what they were doing. They knew they had problems with permits. They could've been more explicit. They didn't have to waste anybody's time,' Christina said. The venue is still undergoing permit problems despite shows on the calendar for the remainder of June. Advertisement 5 The venue is still not permitted to operate, according to the Department of Buildings. Gregory P. Mango The Brooklyn Mirage 'is currently not permitted to operate as they submitted job filing applications that remain under audit,' the Department of Buildings said in a statement. A Temporary Place of Assembly certificate, which allows 75 or more people to gather indoors or 200 or more people to gather outdoors, has been requested for the venue's outdoor area and is still under review, the DOB said. The venue has been awarded the TPA certificate for The Great Hall, an eating and drinking establishment on The Brooklyn Mirage's property, according to the department. Advertisement The venue's operator, Avant Gardner, did not respond to requests for comment. Avant Gardner's CEO, Josh Wyatt, was also fired amid the Memorial Day reopening snafu, BK Mag reported. Wyatt had previously assured people the venue would be '100 percent' ready for the May 1 reopening in an interview with the outlet just days before. Advertisement 'At the end of the day, you can't do that [cancel] to people that are coming from all miles out of the way,' Barros said. 'This [the Brooklyn Mirage] is our safe space, this is our out … What hurts the most is that the safe space that we thought we had is not here this year.'

3 underrated movies you need to watch in June 2025
It's been a strong few weeks at the box office. Lilo & Stitch and Mission: Impossible — The Final Reckoning powered a record-breaking Memorial Day box office. While Ballerina stumbled the week after, the live-action How to Train Your Dragon got off to a fantastic start with an $84 million opening. June still has several high-profile releases coming, including 28 Years Later, Elio, and F1. Many of these movies are sequels and IP-based projects, which tend to release during the summer blockbuster season. However, there are several underrated movies to watch this month. Some of these projects, like Ash, can be streamed at home. Recommended Videos When you're done here, check out the best new movies to stream this week, the best movies on Netflix, the best movies on Hulu, the best movies on Max, the best movies on Amazon Prime Video, and the best movies on Disney+. Ash (2025) Ash is exactly what a B-movie should be. Directed by Flying Lotus, Ash follows Riya Ortiz (Eiza González), an astronaut who wakes up in a space station on a foreign planet with no memories. As Riya explores the station, she finds several crew members have been brutally slaughtered. The key to Riya's questions lies with Brion (Aaron Paul), a fellow astronaut who comes to the station after receiving a distress call. At first, Riya cannot comprehend what happened to the crew. As she experiences flashbacks, Riya starts to consider that perhaps she had something to do with her team's demise. Ash doesn't reinvent the wheel, but it packs a punch thanks to starry visuals, gory action, and a standout performance from González. Stream Ash on Shudder. Echo Valley (2025) Julianne Moore and Sydney Sweeney star in Echo Valley, Apple TV+'s thriller ripped directly from the '90s. Written by Mare of Easttown's Brad Ingelsby, Echo Valley introduces Kate Garrett (Moore), a horse trainer on her farm in Pennsylvania. Kate's life is in shambles after the loss of her wife, which affects her ability to pay the bills and keep the farm running. Kate's daughter, Claire (Sydney Sweeney), mistakenly throws a heroin stash in the river, leading to an explosive confrontation with the drug dealer on the farm. A few nights later, Claire shows up covered in the blood of her boyfriend. Kate now tackles the question faced by many parents: How far are you willing to go to protect your child? Stream Echo Valley on Apple TV+. Dangerous Animals (2025) It's fitting that a new shark movie comes in the same month that Jaws celebrates its 50th anniversary. While a great white shark plays the villain in Jaws, a serial killer becomes the primary antagonist in Dangerous Animals. Tucker (Jai Courtney) runs a cage diving business, recruiting tourists to swim with sharks. Yet Tucker has a dark secret — he feeds his passengers to the sharks and films their deaths. For his next victim, Tucker kidnaps the rebellious surfer Zephyr (Hassie Harrison) and shackles her on his boat. Zephyr won't go down without a fight, which surprisingly excites the eccentric Tucker. Courtney lets it all go to play this flamboyant serial killer, while Harrison's star-making performance shines in this effective summer thriller. Dangerous Animals is now in theaters.
