Námestovo, a town in northern Slovakia, was to host a techno tour on the last day of April.
Redroom Label, the organiser, had to cancel Tuesday’s event scheduled at the local club Imperia-M at the last minute. The club succumbed to the pressure of the local parish and believers, who considered the event to be a public celebration of the devil.
"With our events, we are only trying to bring techno culture to young people. It was never our intention to offend any ethnic, national or religious group," Redroom Label explained on social networks.
