Cancellation notice for tonight:
Burlington Backyard Bash – Opening Night Cancellation Notice
A message from Chairwoman Green.
June 11, 2026
On behalf of the Burlington Backyard Bash, we regret to announce that tonight’s scheduled opening activities have been canceled due to severe weather and unforeseen weather conditions affecting the area.
After carefully monitoring weather forecasts throughout the day, it has become clear that the anticipated storms present a significant safety concern for our guests, vendors, entertainers, volunteers, and staff. Current forecasts indicate the potential for severe weather during much of the event window, with the highest risk expected between 3:00 PM and 7:00 PM. While we were hopeful to proceed with tonight’s festivities, the safety and well-being of everyone involved must remain our highest priority.
We understand the disappointment this announcement may bring and sincerely appreciate the excitement and support the community has shown for the Burlington Backyard Bash. This decision was made only after careful consideration of the forecast and the potential risks associated with hosting an outdoor event under these conditions.
We look forward to welcoming everyone back as conditions allow and encourage attendees to continue following our official social media platforms for updates regarding the remainder of the event schedule and future announcements.
Thank you for your understanding, patience, and continued support.
Sincerely,
Latasha Green
Chairwoman
Burlington Backyard Bash
