The Cannes Film Festival in France has changed its plans for May 2020 in light of the ongoing coronavirus pandemic, organizers announced on Thursday.

The festival will no longer take place May 12-23, although it has not been fully cancelled for the year. “Due to the health crisis and the development of the French and international situation, the Festival de Cannes will no longer be able to take place on the dates planned,” organizers wrote in a statement on Twitter Thursday afternoon.

Organizers say they have not decided on whether to postpone the 2020 festival or to simply scrap it until next year. However, they are considering bumping it until the end of June or early July, according to a statement on the festival’s website.
