Event organisers for Newcastle's Scene & Heard Festival have been forced to reschedule their 2021 event (7 November) given the continuing lockdown measures in place in NSW as well as the border closures affecting the nation. We're looking at you Delta.
With a line-up headlined by Aussie rock and punk royalty Grinspoon, Regurgitator, Frenzal Rhomb and Cog, Scene & Heard Festival will now take place on 27 February, 2022, at Wickham Park in Newcastle."Whilst it breaks our hearts to reschedule once more, rest assured the Scene & Heard team is committed to bringing you the best in live music this summer, in a safe setting with a new date in its sights," Scene & Heard event organisers says.
"Sunday February 27 is set to sizzle at Wickham Park, the 18+ one-day event will feature a superb line-up on the main stage, along with the DCM stage pumping out the sounds.
"With this unfortunately comes news of Killing Heidi unable to make the new event date, stay tuned for a new artist addition to the bill. In the meantime, mark this in your calendar."
The festival also asks, if you can, to hang on to tickets already purchased. "We can't thank you enough for supporting Scene & Heard and we look forward to hanging with you for a much-needed dose of live music action.
"We realise it's a tough period for all, for those who can, please consider holding onto your purchased festival ticket to support our beloved live music industry which is suffering."
Those who can't attend the new date can apply for a refund. The refund window closes at 5pm on 6 October.
Tickets to the 2022 event are available.
