Tyler, the Creator has announced a last-minute postponement of his highly anticipated Camp Flog Gnaw festival due to heavy rainfall in Los Angeles.
The rapper took to Instagram to inform fans, explaining that the extreme weather left him with only two options: cancel or move the festival.
“Due to the fact this storm became an atmospheric rain torrential downpour, we had 2 choices — cancel or move to next weekend. We chose the latter,” Tyler wrote. He added that refunds would be available for ticket holders unable to attend the new dates.

Originally scheduled for November 15 and 16 at Dodger Stadium, Camp Flog Gnaw will now take place on November 22 and 23 at the same iconic venue. The star-studded lineup includes Clipse, ASAP Rocky, Childish Gambino, Doechii, Glorilla, Luh Tyler, T-Pain, Samara Cyn, and more, promising fans a weekend packed with music and excitement.
The postponement comes amid a milestone moment for Tyler’s career. His album CHROMAKOPIA, released over a year ago, recently climbed back into the top five of the Billboard 200, boosted by its re-release at the end of October. In a heartfelt note to fans, Tyler revealed that he had originally planned for CHROMAKOPIA to be his last album for a long time.
“I was planning on this being my last album for a VERY long time,” he shared on Instagram. “Release it. Do the big tour. Go disappear and only pop out for movie roles. See what a life is like without work being top of mind. It’s hard [though], I love making things.”
Despite those intentions, Tyler admitted that the album’s success and the experiences it brought him changed his perspective. “CHROMAKOPIA took me places the others didn’t,” he wrote. “I’m in awe of the success a year after its release. To those who love this body of work, tell me about it. I hope it holds weight in your life. Thank you.”
