Broken Social Scene have cancelled their two upcoming Florida dates.

The Toronto collective were scheduled to play the Langerado Music Festival at Miami's Bicentennial Park from March 6 to 8, but the event was canned earlier this month due to poor ticket sales. The band have now cancelled a scheduled appearance at the Harvest Of Hope Festival in St. Augustine that weekend.

Several other Canadian acts scheduled to play Langerado have also had to alter their plans. Chromeo's Dave 1 will do a DJ set with Diplo at LIV in Miami on March 4, Holy Fuck will play Fort Lauderdale's Revolution on March 6, King Khan & The Shrines will hit Miami's Vagabond on March 7 and Tokyo Police Club will perform at Orlando's Social Club on March 7 and City Limits in Delray Beach the next night.

Snoop Dogg, Death Cab For Cutie, Dashboard Confessional, Ryan Adams & The Cardinals and Michael Franti & Spearhead were among the other acts who were to play Langerado. Ticket holders will be offered full refunds.
