Listen Out 2020 Festival Cancelled: 'We Had A Killer Line-up Ready To Go'

Listen Out organisers have confirmed that the 2020 festival, including spin-off event Listen In, will not be going ahead this year. 

Originally scheduled for August, the touring event will now plan ahead for its 2021 shows. 

"Well, we waited as long as we possibly could in case it became possible... but as you probably expected, the Listen Out / Listen In Aust & NZ tour can't go ahead this year," the statement reads.

"We had a killer lineup ready to go, a new venue for Melbourne and heaps of changes in the other cities which you would have loved.

"Sadly though, it wasn't to be... but we're already working hard on Listen Out / Listen In 2021 and we cannot wait to see you there!

"Til then: Stay true, stay strong, and keep love in your heart."

The 2019 Listen Out festival featured a stack of huge local and international talent, including Flume, Diplo, Schoolboy Q, Denzel Curry and Wafia.
