The festival was suggested to be held at 6pm, on the same day in Rafah service club's hall.
The festival was called for by the National Labor Committee on the Palestine satellite channel on 30/4/2008.
The club's administration has had to cancel the festival in fear for any action that might be taken by the police to close the club under pretext that the festival was unauthorized.
