ATLANTA — Editor's note: The video above is from a previous version of the story.

Bad news for those looking to head out to Piedmont Park Sunday for the 10th annual BeREGGAE Festival, the day's festivities have been "postponed" due to conditions from Saturday evening's storms.

In a release, organizers stated that "due to the tremendous safety hazard of falling and/or fallen trees present as well as a completely water logged Piedmont Park after Saturday's severe thunderstorms, we are forced to postpone the remaining day of the BeREGGAE Music and Arts Festival and the Boom Bap Atlanta Hip Hop 50 Celebration."

At this time, there is no word on whether the concert will be held on a different day.

Organizers simply stated "stay tuned for updates in the next few days."

In addition, they added that "all vip, tent packages, Cabana holders, and Boom Bap Atlanta ticket holder will receive full refunds."

In previous years, at least 75,000 people have filled the park over the course of the three-day festival. This weekend marked the event's 10th year.
