Aussie Festival Featuring Kasey Chambers Cancels 2020 Event Set For Next Month

Organisers of the Groundwater Country Music Festival have announced the 2020 event scheduled for next month will not be going ahead.

Originally set for 24-26 July, this year's edition of the Broadbeach festival has been called off due to the COVID-19 restrictions on mass gatherings. 

"There is nothing the Broadbeach Alliance team loves more than seeing the Broadbeach precinct come alive with the sounds of some of the best country music on offer and they could not wait to present the 2020 festival to fans," a statement issued today reads.

"However, this decision is in line with the current Queensland government’s legislation on non-essential mass gatherings, making it impossible for the event to go ahead in July.

"The Groundwater team is investigating alternative options for the festival and would like to assure fans that they will be notified of any updates on Groundwater’s social media."

The 2020 festival was to be headlined by Australian heavyweight Kasey Chambers, alongside acts including Shannon Noll, Sunny Cowgirls and Gina Jeffreys.
