Storm Area 51 Creator Pulls Out Of “Alienstock” Fearing Humanitarian Disaster

What a strange timeline we live in. Event creator Matty Roberts just recently pulled out of his own AlienStock music festival a week prior to the actual event, fearing that the Area 51 event could potentially turn into a humanitarian disaster.

“Due to the lack of infrastructure, poor planning, risk management and blatant disregard for the safety of the expected 10,000+ AlienStock attendees, we decided to pull the plug on the festival,” Roberts and his team announced. “We are not interested in, nor will we tolerate any involvement in a FYREFEST 2.0.”

Nevertheless, it seems like the event is still happening, but Roberts and his team have other plans. As an alternative, they are now promoting an Area 51 celebration at the Downtown Las Vegas Event Center on September 19th.
