Lighting towers and other on-site structures also fell.<\/p>\n<p>Organisers initially aimed to proceed with the two-day event, but local authorities ordered a postponement. The festival will now take place as a single-day event on <strong>July 23<\/strong> at its regular venue, a former NATO base in the <strong>Bagnoli<\/strong> district.<\/p>\n<p>Tickets already purchased remain valid for the new date.
