Something in the Water's date change cost the Virginia Beach hospitality industry, so they want more warning next time.

VIRGINIA BEACH, Va. — Something in the Water was supposed to happen this weekend at the Oceanfront. When Pharrell Williams’ event—one of Virginia Beach’s biggest music festivals—was postponed to next April, it left many people wondering what to do.

Now the people, city, and hospitality industry are adjusting and planning ahead.

Local artists filled stages along the boardwalk Saturday for a new festival, Pulse Fest, in place of Pharrell’s festival.
