Splendour in the Grass Festival Postponed Until 2021
three months to October 2020.On Wednesday (June 10), Splendour’s producers Jessica Ducrou and Paul Piticco conceded those plans were too ambitious.The 20th anniversary of the three-day fest will be pushed back to July 2021, effectively skipping a year.“We have been monitoring the situation closely for the past few months and while Australia is now moving into the recovery phase, there is no timeline yet around the opening of international borders,” say Ducrou and Piticco, co-CEOs of Secret Sounds, in a statement.As a result, and “with our audience interests front and centre," the message continues, "we must announce the reschedule to 2021 now.”The next edition of Splendour is now penciled on for July 23-25, at North Byron Parklands.
