Roadburn Festival 2011 is scheduled to run from Thursday, April 14th to Sunday, April 17th at the 013 venue and Midi Theatre in Tilburg, Holland.

Organizers have issued the following update: "We are sorry to announce that YOB has canceled their European tour for spring 2011. This has the very regrettable result of meaning the band will not appear at this years Roadburn festival. We can really sympathize that you all were looking forward to see the band playing their seminal album, The Unreal Never Lived. We also feel bad about this! We were looking forward to their show too, as we’re fans, just like you.

However, we can’t prevent cancellations at Roadburn, no matter how much we want to. It’s an iron-hard reality we have to deal with. We are currently working on a replacement for YOB to keep Roadburn’s 2011 lineup just as strong as ever. (We’ll announce YOB's replacement this Wednesday, January 12th).

YOB's Mike Scheidt states: "We regretfully must announce that YOB cannot appear at the Roadburn Festival in April 2011. We are heartbroken to not be in attendance. Roadburn 2010 was and is one of the highlight experiences of our lives, as a band and individually as people. We do intend to come to Europe sometime in 2011 and hope to be invited to Roadburn 2012. Until then we want to thank Walter, Jurgen, and everyone who makes this incredible event possible. We also wish to apologize to anyone who wanted to see YOB there this year. We promise you we will be back.
