Internet entrepreneur Kim Dotcom has cancelled his album release and birthday party after being advised that it could break electoral law.

Mr Dotcom was to host more than 20,000 people at the party at Auckland's Vector Arena on Monday.

He said because tickets to the celebration are free, he has been advised that the purpose of the event could be misunderstood.

On Wednesday, Mr Dotcom announced that he will launch a new political party called the Internet Party to contest this year's general election.
