In their statement, they pointed to a number of “things beyond our control”, including “the potential for unfortunate weather”.
Saturday’s forecast does not predict any wild events, but speaking with The Mercury this week, promoter Pritesh Ranjitkar said that the decision to delay was made last week.
Ranjitkar said they were “checking the weather constantly” and postponed over fear of potential “thunderstorms and rain” at the time of the decision.
It’s been confirmed that “all previously purchased tickets will remain valid” for the April show, which will also feature Tyne James Organ, SUMNER, The Delta Riggs and more.

Those unable to make the new date are able to request a refund until 6pm next Monday, March 13.
