In what comes as disappointing news to live music lovers, Airwaves Festival has been postponed due to Queensland border restrictions.
While the festival was originally planned for Saturday, January 23rd and Sunday, January 24th, it has since been announced that the restrictions will remain in place until at least Sunday, January 31st.
Luckily, punters won’t have to wait long until the festival makes its return, as it has been rescheduled to Saturday, March 27th and Sunday, March 28th.
In a statement, Airwaves Festival’s event director Cindy Jensen said that organisers “refuse to be defeated by Covid”.
“It’s certainly not something that’s easy to digest, especially given the cancellation of our big sister event, Buskers by the Lake last October and the third night of Airwaves – The Drive-In Music Festival back in July,” she said.
“But as promoters we feel a natural responsibility to continue to support our industry, fans and partners and we refuse to be defeated by Covid!”
March’s event marks the second Airwaves Festival, with the first having taken place in July 2020.
